Nissan has officially announced that the Nissan GT-R will be making its way back to Nordschleife and race in the Nurburgring 24 Hours. The race will be held on June 21st and 22nd and is considered to be one of the toughest endurance races in the world – known as the ultimate test of man and machines as they compete on the daunting Nurburgring Nordschleife. For the first time in several years, Nissan and NISMO have put together a team of top races from its global stable for one chance in the event. Nissan Super GT Racers, Michael Krumm and Kazuki Hoshino will join forces with NISMO Global Exchange Driver Katsumasa Chivo an Tetsuya Tanaka. Krum said, “Driving a Nissan GT-R at the Nurburgring is pure pleasure – to have the opportunity to battle for top positions makes this year’s race very special for me. I have been waiting for this opportunity for a few years now, and it looks like this could be the shot for a good position. Having said that, anything can happen at the Nordschleife – sow we also need luck of course. For the young drivers in our team it will be a huge challenge. The Nordschleife is the most challenging circuit in the world and when you add rain and fog to the equation, things can get even more uncomfortable. I’m sure they will all do a great job, as everyone has been prepared by Nissan and NISMO very well.”
