Umm, what I dont get is why use a heavy GT-R Chassis if you are going to replace the motor, transmission, brakses, suspension, etc. Why even bother to do all that, just keep the race car they already had. Uses all those parts anyway...

Looks cool, but meh. Should've kept the 350z race car they had and made it faster.

think the car has to be currently in production. yea they coulda used a 370 but why do that when you can use a GTR? :)

If thats the case, then the GT-R is definitely the logical choice for series racing.

yeah has to be a production car for FIA and Super GT ( unless your honda)

Ya I think they are running that

NSX prototype right.

Just thought I'd bump this. Came back to look at the pics again after seeing a related article on Autoblog and fell in love again lol.

here are some very nice SUPER hi res pics..

we are going to be doing some press distribution for the Sumo Power team trying to raise awareness over here in the US, hopefully including some embedded streaming coverage of the race on NAGTROC at somepoint in the season if they get that up and running for us

Very HI -RES FIA GT GTR Photos! - NAGTROC - The Nissan GT-R Owners Club

Love the gunmetal colored RAYS wheels in some of those pics. I've heard they maybe become a Volk rim in the future.

Will that series be televised in the US? On Speed maybe?

but the GT-R has that magic fairy dust that overwhelms power-to-weight ratio. It's been confounding journalists since the original Car & Driver article a few years back. We won't even mention the Nissan/Porsche feud over 'Ring lap times. OK, we mentioned it. :tup:

Marketing. Race on Sunday, sell on Monday. GT-R has a trickle effect from the 370Z down to the Maxima.

seriously doubt it, it wasnt last year. there will be some online streams though
