It’s funny how realistic racing games can be these days, including Sony’s Gran Turismo 6 for the PlayStation 3. Now, Toyota is putting that realism to good use.

The company is launching a new onboard telemetry recorder for one of its upcoming sports models. This device enables drivers to calculate their best times based on simulations – in this case, in a real race as projected through Gran Turismo 6.

The Sports Drive Logger, as it’s called, will arrive on June 2, though it will only be released in Japan at this time. Right now, it only specifically works with the 86 (the Scion FR-S in North America), and with one of three courses that are featured in the game, all of which are based in Japan.

The video below demonstrates just how well the tech works, using the game’s GPS Visualizer and replay systems.
