From the sneak peek at the GT-R with the cover still on it, that white livery has the potential to be quite nice but I'll wait until I see the car fully uncovered.

OK, so what are the differences between these and current GT2s again? By that, I mean how much modification would need to be made for the Nissan to run GT2 where it belongs?

The GT4 Maserati is quite neat too. Is it going to be raced/sold or is it just a one off?
Pic of it in Vitaphone garage so must be being prepped by them.

That's what I actually love about it. The cars looks real nice overall.

But the favorit is still the Nissan. Cleaner than the Super GT car but still brutal, I think I got a new favorite since there is no DBR9 in any class...

The GT-R is as big as a tank! Love the new livery on the SRT C6.R. Oh, and the new rear wings are hideous.

What's up with those? The endplates kill the look (the wings themselves are normal)--the endplates look as those they've been slapped on by boi-racers, yo dude!

If your question is, what would it take to run in ACO GT2? This car will never run in ACO GT2, unless it was massively modified. V8 engine... Hopefully the ACO doesn't allow for such silhouette racers.

Am I the only one who really doesn't like that Nissan? Very ugly front end and looks like a bulky touring car. I could never stand the old Skylines and this new car looks out of place against Saleens, MC12s, 430s, Corvettes and 911s. The Ford GT, though, looks fabulous!

he guys,i'm a bit confused about the nissan gt1.the gt1 has a V8 engine,but the production GTR model is running a twin turbo V6 engine.isn't their a rule that you have to use the original production engine if you are going racing?or has that rule been dropped for the 2010 regulations.?
