The Formula Gran Turismo World Championship is an Extreme Series event available at level 23 in Gran Turismo 5. There are six races, all 20 laps each in A-Spec, and all ranging from 30 to 37 laps in B-Spec. Unlike previous iterations of this event, the only car being allowed is the Formula Gran Turismo, a quite rare car that can be found only in the Used Car Dealership, and previously, also in the Online Car Dealership. With the ending of the online services on May 2014, the latter method to obtain the car is no longer available.
