Anything With Lights: Nissan GT-R Pace Car

Nissan’s mighty GT-R has signed on for pace-car duty once again. Godzilla will lead the pack during the 2009 Australian V8 Supercar Championship Series beginning on March 14. Modifications to the car are pretty simple – sticking mostly to decals and high-visibility strobes and leaving the mechanical wizardry under the hood alone. Nissan offered its supercar up for caution detail to build awareness in the land down under, but a spokesperson with the company let slip another interesting tidbit that’s worth listening to. Turns out Nissan Chief Test Driver Toshio Suzuki will head back to Nurburgring with a 2009 GT-R to try to best his 7 minute, 29 second lap time. It’s about time the Porsche/Nissan fires were stoked. Full release after the jump.

From the article: “Sorry, Ford. Your by-default reign over the American musclecar party is about to come to an end. This is clear the instant we climb aboard a final engineering prototype of the Challenger SRT8, fire its 425-horse Hemi V-8, and plant our right foot hard to the mat. The engine screams to over 6000 rpm, the rectangular exhaust outlets bellow, and the Big Bad Dodge’s husky butt fishtails in response, just like the good old days. Better, in fact.”
