Nissan GT-R FIA-GT1 race car to tackle Spa 24 Hours endurance race

This coming weekend Nissan will bring its iconic GT-R back to the Spa 24 Hours race in Belgium, the scene of the firm’s dominant win in the grueling event back in 1991 with the R32 Skyline GT-R Group A car. Since shakedown in December of 2008, the GT-R has completed over 10,000km of testing, including its pair of appearances in the FIA GT Championship, and is now fully prepared for its biggest challenge of the current season.

The new car’s outings in the European-based GT championship are a precursor to a full assault on the series next season.
