Nissan Launches Race Academy for GT-R Pre-Order Customers


As if being on the waiting list to receive the all-new 2009 GT-R wasn’t enough to make us jealous, Nissan has now launched the ‘Race Academy’ for GT-R pre-order customers that could lead to them obtaining a full racing licence. In particular, UK GT-R customers will be offered the opportunity to participate in Race Academy events at Silverstone or at the Nürburgring race track in Germany.

The events will take place during August and September with customers having the unique opportunity to get up close and personal with the 2009 GT-R, long before taking delivery of their own vehicle. The track day experience will include a one-on-one tuition and over 45 minutes behind the wheel of the GT-R, while there will also be the opportunity to learn how to ‘drift’ in a Nissan 350Z. -Continued

Stephane Cottin, Vice President, Marketing for Nissan in Europe, said: "All of us at Nissan who have been working on the launch of this fantastic car want to provide a customer experience for GT-R customers which reflect the passion they have for GT-R, a passion which is matched by our own. It's important to us that GT-R customers enjoy everything about the car - and these customer events will give customers the opportunity to fully enjoy the GT-R's capabilities on a track, while they await delivery of their car." -Picture: Carscoop
