How To: Master the "B" License Tests in Gran Turismo 5 (Gold Trophy Guide)

If you're a legit Gran Turismo fan, you've already gotten the new Gran Turismo 5 for PlayStation 3.  There's a lot of new features in GT5, and one that returns is the License Test challenges.  One change in the License Tests in GT5 is that it ties every mode into a single, persistent experience system that lets players go straight to entering cups without having to pass any license tests first.

To unlock the first set of License Tests, i.e. the National B-License Tests, it's simple.  In fact, it's so simple, it's not even worth saying.

Okay, never mind.  I'll tell you.  So, turn on your PlayStation 3 and get ready to win gold...

Simply purchase your first car and you'll unlock the B-License Tests.  That's it.  After that, you'll have to figure out the remaining ones: A, IC, IB, IA and S.  But this compilation of videos will show you how to get started earning the gold by demonstrating how to win each of the ten challenges for B.  Get a gold trophy on all of them with these videos.
