We at Nissan Sport Magazine covered their entire season two years ago in our Motorsport Section and coming at the end of this January , in our winter issue , ( available at Barnes and Noble and Borders ) is another article by me on RJN and this past season racing for the FIA GT-4 Cup . A great team , with great principals and drivers . At Dubai , former F1 driver Johnny Herbert , along with the Nissan GT Academy winners , will join RJN'S hotshoe , Alex Buncombe , to bring it to the house . We wish them victory from Nissan Sport Magazine !

Ah, you're the one that wrote that article. Good writing and thanks. Nothing like keeping you in the mood for track time in the dead of winter.

Congrats to the German Land Motorsports 2 Team for their first place win , just beating out a BMW Z4 coupe who finished second . There were so many strong Porsche teams entered , that the RJN 350Z teams and the others had their work cut out for them . RJN did qualify second in their class but RJN Motorsports unfortunately ran into bad luck , retiring one car and the Team 2 car only finishing 63rd out of 75 cars . One highlight of this exciting race was the professional-like driving of Spaniard Lucas Ordonez , one of the Playstation-Nissan GT Academy contest winners . The other winner , German Lars Schlomer wasn't allowed to drive as he had not completed his certification for his license . RJN is an up and coming team and if you want to learn more about them check out the Winter issue of Nissan Sport Magazine , available end of January at Barnes and Nobles and Borders . Here's a good link to some videos of the race : live.24hseries.com/default.asp?page=327&video=33 .
