Following on from the Tweet detailing GT Academy‘s online participation, Kazunori Yamauchi has also Tweeted figures about GT5′s cumulative online racing to date – a truly staggering 36.4billion miles in the 577 days since launch!

Numbers of this magnitude are difficult to comprehend without context, so here’s some equivalents:

•GT5 players have driven the distance from the Earth to the Sun. And back. 200 times.
•Or the distance from the Sun to Neptune. And back. Thirteen times.
•In under 2 years GT5 players have driven three times further than Voyager 1 has managed in 35 years.
•We’d still take 1,367 years to drive GT5 to our nearest star, Proxima Centauri…
The average increase in distance is 63 million miles a day, with GT5′s online players covering the same distance in 2 days as the entire GT Academy 2012 competition has so far! This corresponds to 2.6 million mph or around 730 miles per second, enough to:

•Equal the record distance in the Nürburgring 24hr in 3.4 seconds
•Drive from San Francisco to New York in 3.5 seconds
•Drive from New York to London in 4.7 seconds
•Drive from London to Sydney in 14.4 seconds
•Drive around the Earth in the time it took you to read this article
•Drive to the Moon in 5 minutes 27 seconds
Even though the average online race in Gran Turismo 5 is only just over 12 miles in length, the community as a whole is certainly getting their money’s worth from the game with each playerdriving nearly 500 online miles.

山内一典：自从GT5发售577天以来玩家累计行驶距离为364亿英里。相当于：
地球到太阳的200次来回
太阳到海王星的13次来回
比旅行者1号35年的飞行距离的3倍还多
还需要1367年就可以达到最近的恒星比邻星。
