In the midst of final preparation for the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans, Nissan GT-R LM NISMO Chief Engineer, Zach Eakin, drove the GT-R LM NISMO to Jay Leno’s Garage to go over all things GT-R LM NISMO. The episode highlights some of racecar’s key features and explains why Nissan believes that their GT-R LM NISMO is the most competitive way, within the regulations, to get around Le Mans. Eakin shares with Leno that this year’s racecar is completely different than ever before – this year’s model features front-wheel drive which is able to add additional down force to the front of the vehicle.
