Tiff Needell and Audi R8 v Forza Motorsport 5 | evo TV

Tiff Needell and Henry Catchpole face off against the clock in this Silverstone track battle. Who is fastest on the track; Tiff in the real R8, or Henry in the virtual car? Watch the video to find out.

They could've at least given Henry a wheel instead of that controller

[FROOB]

Why did they put a racing driver against a gaming novice?

[sultanabran]

gamepads are a waste of time for driving games.

[hunghuge]

An Audi that understeers. Who ever would have thought it?

[rosscads]

An ex-pro racing driver vs someone who's never played a computer before? Well, that was a pointless comparison.

[krocialblack]

Why do I feel like this is just another Xbox One commercial, instead of a review?

[Kaipeternicolas]

This guy can't drive Forza at all.

[teakbridge]

That is why you drive Assetto Corsa and get a simulator wheel!

[xBuzz]

The one who drove on the xbone sucked -.- 

[digi]

you guys should use a steering wheel like the G27.

Really funny video guys, especially Tiff trying to drive the video game. A tip for the game is just to have the volume way up or get really geeked out and put on some head phones cause then you can actually assess the threshold of the tire grip by hearing the changing sound of the tire screech.

[ZondaF]

great idea but you guys at EV have got to get your hands on the Thrustmaster TX Racing wheel for now. Then get the new FANATEC wheel when it becomes available. Much better with any wheel. Great idea for sure

The car sounds are serviceable. The non premium cars are a drag. But you get 1200 cars, dynamic weather, dynamic lughting, 37 racecourses, Kart, Nascar, F1, Rally. Almost 1080P too, impressive.

And GT7 will level the field. Given the power of ps4, no xbox car sim wil ever come close in the next 10 years.

For those wishing to challenge his lap in their simulator of choice, I timed Tiff's lap at approximately 1:10.320.

Although the video cuts away from the on board, the audio is uninterrupted so I assume it's unedited. And there is good visibility of the start finish line at both ends of the video. No idea what Henry's lap was I'm Forza. Slow, most likely.

[TheStallion]

What differentiates Tiff from other testers out there is that he can do hot laps while laughing and narrating. Always looks like he's having a blast, no matter what he's driving

[carrubi]

Give the gamer a real Steering Wheel, like a logitech, and do the test again

[Audfile]

Yes, gt6 physics are astounding. And their new graphics engine looks great. I also have a ps4 but am still impressed with gt6.

[NickMcMillenGT]

I was at Silverstone the day they were doing this. Cool to see the video put together!

[pablitn]

God... Its been a long time since a watched a show with tiff... Time has passed for everyone...

[MrMagnificentMedia]

Enjoyed the video, it's just that Tiff is a professional driver, he wasn't distracted whilst driving but did distract the guy on Forza (who wasn't any good at it btw). Finally, a steering wheel for Henry would have been more suitable for this challenge.
