At Stripping the Dipping, we pride ourselves on sharing a broad range of perspectives from across the motorsport community. Darren Cox fought his way into a career in motorsport and ended up with a film about part of that journey, in which he was played by Orlando Bloom! It was at Nissan that Darren dreamt up a marketing project called GT Academy, GT Academy, a show in which gamers were given the opportunity to compete for a drive in motorsport. It ended up in over 120 countries around the world and its success led to the film Gran Turismo! Latterly, he founded The Race Media, which includes WTF1 and therace.com - but that's only half of the story. Keep your ears peeled for Darren's motor racing pseudonym, under which he won the Silverstone 24 hours - and which F1 driver most surprised him in the way they took to the world of sim racing.

From Video Gamer to Professional Driver with Jann Mardenborough In this week's Team Never Quit episode, Marcus and Melanie bring you an incredible story that bridges the virtual and real worlds of racing. Join us as we dive into the fascinating journey of Jann Mardenborough, a British professional racing driver who went from playing sim racing video games to competing at the highest levels of motorsport. Jann's passion for racing ignited at a young age. Despite his father's professional soccer career, Jann dreamed of holding a steering wheel. Growing up in Cardiff, Wales, his potential was clear even at age 8 when he impressed a local go-kart track owner. However, financial constraints forced him to give up real-world racing, pushing him towards sim racing games like Gran Turismo. The turning point came in 2011 when Jann entered the GT Academy, a hybrid gaming-driving competition by Nissan and Sony Computer Entertainment. Competing against 90,000 entrants, Jann's exceptional skills in Gran Turismo 5 propelled him to the finals. His dedication saw him practicing up to five hours a day on a simulator rig complete with pedals and a steering wheel. Jann's journey through the GT Academy was nothing short of extraordinary. Starting from virtual races, he proved his mettle on real tracks at Brands Hatch and Silverstone. His performance culminated in a winner-take-all race at Silverstone, securing him a professional racing contract with Nissan. From winning the GT Academy, Jann quickly made a name for himself in the racing world. He has since finished on the podium in his class at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, won races, and contended for titles in GT3 and junior formula cars. His career highlights also include competing in Super GT, Super Formula, and the FIA World Endurance Championship. We'll also touch on the Gran Turismo movie, which dramatizes the story of how a video gamer like Jann transitioned into a professional racing driver. This film highlights the transformative impact of the GT Academy and showcases the merging of virtual and real-world racing. Jann's story is a testament to how passion and dedication can turn dreams into reality, regardless of how unachievable they may seem. Tune in to hear more about his incredible journey from a bedroom gamer to a professional driver on some of the world's most prestigious tracks. In this episode you will hear: • My dad isn't an academic person, but he really instilled in me and my younger brother – things about life. You have one life. He was paid to do something he loved. (6:07) • When you're 8 or 9 years old, you don't really understand, but as you get older – what do I want to do? And my thing was racing. I didn't know how I was going to do it. It was always instilled in my head – the understanding what the job was. I thought to myself “I want to do that. I don't know how I'm going to get there, but I want to do that.” (6:26) • It was through my friends – the love of cars, and the objects, and the pictures. I had them on my wall. (8:38) • I was a kid that could recognize a car on the street in the dark just by the headlights as a 6 year-old. (9:50) • With my dad, when I was younger, he never forced anything on me. (17:39) • [Melanie] Q: Using the video game simulation, did you ever think that that was actually going to propel you into real racing? A: No. Absolutely not. It wasn't a conscious thought. My dream was always to be a racing driver, but I didn't know how it would happen. (25:52) • I used to go to work with the keys of my BMW which I had maybe 6 months. I would always go to work with the key in my pocket. That little BMW emblem on the key ring – I'd be rubbing it in my pocket, just thinking, “This isn't it, what I'm doing, but I have at least something which was bringing me joy.” (26:53) • Confidence and arrogance. People want to give you responsibility.  If you're a bit soft with your answers – the first impressions are what really matter. (41:11) • Every day in the academy, there was somebody getting eliminated. (41:41) • I box things off in my head, once I learn about them, and I don't revisit them. (50:49) • [His car went airborne] A horrible point in my life. I remember it vividly. (51:34) • [Melanie] As [Marcus'] wife, I see the parallel between the two of you. Both of you never quit. (52:46) • My favorite championship race is the one in Japan. It's called GT500. (64:51) • In motorsports, even in Formula 1, you have 1 tire supplier. (65:25) • Yes, there's things I want to do in the sport. I want my own race team. (67:42) • Be the best that you can be.

Are you bummed that there isn't a Top Gun: Maverick this year? I just might have some good news for you. You may find that Gran Turismo meets your Top Gun: Maverick needs. Just like Maverick, we have a driven guy that has an immense talent in this movie named Jann Mardenborough. He's excellent at the auto racing simulator Gran Turismo but wants to be a real race car driver. A GT Academy is created to give gamer drivers like him a chance to auto race for real. No reset buttons. Just your life ending if you screw up just a little bit, just like in a fighter jet. Jann has to beat other gamer drivers and real professional drivers with years of real-life experience. Also, he doesn't want to prove his doubters correct by failing. Can he hang without getting himself killed? Is this high-octane, kinetic, frenetic racing action drama worth you racing to the theater? Check out my spoiler-free review here to find out. Gran Turismo is directed by Neill Blomkamp and stars Archie Madekwe, David Harbour, Orlando Bloom, Djimon Hounsou, Geri Horner, Takehiro Hira, Darren Barnet, Josha Stradowski, Daniel Puig, Maeve Courtier-Lily, Pepe Barroso, Niall McShea, Nikhil Parmar, Thomas Kretschmann.Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

Director Neill Blomkamp joins us to discuss his thrilling new racing film and biopic, chronicling GT Academy winner Jann Mardenborough's rise into professional racing. Joining the conversation are the film's supervising sound editors, Kami Asgar and Erin Oakley, as well as re-recording mixer — and real-life race car driver — Beau Borders, who brought his personal experience from behind the wheel onto the mixing stage, to give audiences the most authentic experience possible. “Obviously I'm gonna want [the sound] to be realistic. I wanna honor race car drivers. I want car fans to watch the movie and feel like they're not being pandered to. But at the same time, it can't just be totally accurate. It also has to be hyperreal… When I do these car races and I'm all strapped in and the adrenaline's going, I'm convinced that the thing that I'm going through is the most exciting, amazing, wild thing that any human being other than an astronaut has ever experienced… Because that's what happens in your brain.” —Beau Borders, Re-recording Mixer, “Gran Turismo” Be sure to check out Gran Turismo, now playing in theaters.

Welcome back friends.  Today's episode features the man, Jann Mardenborough.  He's a British racing driver of which started his career by winning the illustrious GT Academy back in 2011.  If you aren't familiar, the GT Academy is an international virtual to reality contest which allows players of Gran Turismo to compete in an effort to become a real racing driver, or atleast be given the oppurtunity to do so.  This is no simple task as Jann beat out 90,000 entrants to secure his victory.  This guy has a special fucking drive (no pun) which has accelerated (no pun) his racing career, one that was never envisioned before.  Since 2011, he has competed in the following disciplines; British GT (GT3), GT4,  Formula 3, 24H of LeMans (3x), Super GT (GT300 & GT500), and the Blancpain Endurance Series to name a few.  For those that are big fans of racing, here are some of the cars he has piloted:Nismo GT-R GT3 (R35)GT-R GT300 (R35)GT-R GT500 (R35)Nismo GT-R LM Nismo (LMP1)Zytek Z11SN - NissanLigier JS P2 - NissanDallara F312That is quite the list innit?  It was an absolute honor to be able to add Jann to the Motor Culture library and for him to talk about some of the intricacies of racing.  Given his wide array of experience throughout multiple disciplines gives him a very intellectual outlook on racing, on driving.  Like me, he likes to get into a car and just fucking drive for no reason and I can truly appreciate that.  His love for motoring is one that flows through both categories of business & pleasure.  So without further adieu ladies & gents, Jann Mardenborough for Motor Culture.  Cheers.Intro & exit track provided by the talented @ArifOmariandFranklinproduction squad. Thanks gents

Jann Mardenborough's unorthodox entry into the world of motorsport saw him beat 90,000 entrants internationally on PlayStation, to win the 2011 GT Academy, which became his gateway to a career as a professional racing driver. Now based in Toyko, the British gamer-turned-racer has spent the last five seasons competing in the Japanese Super GT. In his short career he has already amassed experience in a number of categories including both sports cars and single seaters, and was even signed to the Red Bull driver development programme in 2014. In this episode, hear how if given the chance, Jann would inspire a new generation of drivers and workforce into the sport.Follow Jann on Twitter & Instagram: @jannthamanKeep up to date with Driven by Diversity on Instagram: @wearedrivenbydiversity See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We welcome Jann Mardenborough who was the youngest GT Academy winner in 2011 and now races at the highest level of racing in Super GT as a NISMO driver for Kondo Racing. What was it like to go from sim racing to driving real cars? Competition among GT Academy drivers at the pro level? His favorite car from the Nissan Heritage Garage? What was it like to drive for Nissan GT-R legend Kazuyoshi Hoshino? Track he wants to visit is Ebisu circuit!?  In our review section James reviews the 2021 Kia Seltos. We also go over the new Nissan Ariya just announced this morning.  Sam shows some pictures surfacing on a limited edition Supra GRMN edition. We also agree that the new Ford Bronco is one good looking truck.  Taro introduces a GTChannel video where Robbie Nishida interviews an 18 year old Formula Drift Japan driver that drifts a Nissan Siliva S15 with an SR20 engine. 

On this week’s episode, David Williams joins me to talk about how sim racing can make you a better track day driver or racer. We dive deep to discuss Virtual Racing School, how being a pro sim racer works (where does the money come from?!), dealing with a lack of sensory input from the sim, sensing the limit in a sim, the accuracy of car setups in the sim, brain neuroplasticity and adapting to sims and real cars. Oh, and David offers sim coaching services.   David’s speed secret: Be deliberately willing to push beyond your ability in measured amounts.   David is an Avid motorsport enthusiast with 13 years of experience and success across multiple sims with VRS Coanda Simsport. He’s a hardware design engineer & racing coach for Virtual Racing School and a multiple race driver competition finalist including the 2012 GT Academy.  Check these out to follow David: Twitter: @CoandaDave YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DavidWilliamsRacing Virtual Racing School: https://virtualracingschool.com Niels Heusinkveld: https://www.youtube.com/user/niels007007

Matthew presents #LondonGP - your weekly motor sport and music extravaganza on ZoneOneRadio - the community radio station for Central London. Matthew and this a weekly motorsport news and music show on ZoneOneRadio - the community radio station for Central London.. Things are really starting to take off here at ZoneOneRadio HQ in the old BBC London building on Marylebone High Street, so, unfortunately this is going to be his last show for a while. But he's going out on a high! At Rockingham a couple of weeks ago, Matthew bumped into GT Academy winner and "friend of the show" Jann Mardenborough. In May last year Jann was an ordinary teenager sitting in his bedroom playing Gran Turismo on his Playstation. Since then he has beaten 90,000 other gamers from across Europe and won himself a career as a racing driver. Music this week from DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, James Brown and Randy Crawford amongst others. -- www.twitter.com/radio_matthew and www.twitter.com/z1radio www.ZoneOneRadio.com www.facebook.com/ZoneOneRadio
