Nismo has confirmed two teams that will field it’s 600hp GT1 car in this years FIA GT championship series.

The teams are Swiss Racing Team headed by Othmar Welti and British team Sumo Power GT led by James Rumsey. Each team will field two cars a piece which means 4 of the 24 GT1 cars on the grid later in the year will be Nissan GT-Rs.

The first race kicks off in May at Silverstone Circuit. More info on this car here although I personally think it looks much better without all the vinyl here. Video here.
