Jeremy Clarkson as part of the utterly brilliant Top Gear did a challenge a couple of years ago where he attempted to race a Honda NSX around the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca circuit with the same lap time a he could achieve in Gran Turismo 4. He couldn't, reasoning that at the back of his mind is imagination and the thought "what if a wheel falls off now?" or "what if I press the brake...

It was at the Nurburgring and all sorts of weird and wonderful people were present, including the legendary car scribe LJK Setright, who the Honda brass treated...
