Default FIA GT 350Z in Race Car Engineering

Have you guys read it?

It's nice, with a few pictures of the shell with the roll cage.

That's a nice little Z

Sounds like a good article.

That car (and series) is modeled in the upcoming GTR-2 PC racing sim. I'm curious to see how it drives.

Here's a screenshot from GTR-2 for the PC (mentioned above).

Here's a little blurb on the RJN Motorsports FIA 350z GT
http://www.crash.net/news_view~t~RJN...~id~129763.htm

The extension of the PlayStation-Nissan partnership to the team adds to the recent homologation of the RJN 350Z GT-2 by NISMO which rubber stamped the team's efforts competing successfully with privateer Nissan's over the years. "
Does this mean Nismo may put out some more products for us?

Here are a couple pics I was able to harvest:

Oh, and the competition...which ummm...looks fierce...
I don't know about you guys, but the Z looks like child's play in that melee of GT cars. Regardless, I am very proud of their efforts.

Anybody know the engine specs?

/corrected: Some of these cars belong in GT1, whereas the 350z runs in GT2/

The 350Z runs in GT2 against the Ferrari 430 and Porsche 911RSR. The Corvette, Aston Martin and Saleen run in the GT1 class. The RJN 350Z is a low dollar privateer built car with little factory support. Unfortunately, unless Nismo or Nissan Europe gives them a lot of $$ they will be struggling against the Ferrari's and Porsche's.
