Some nice videos there Bendolin. Good find young Jedi :wave2:
Such a shame to see race cars all bent up like that, particularly at the end of a race like that.........no way to bow out. I happen to think the Driver was right too.

The complete history of the GTR in Auz
Obakemono Downunder
A History of The Nissan GT-R in Group A Competition in Australia
Compiled by Graeme Williams
May 1989
Magazines preview the R32 model range. Even one month prior to release, the Australian press think the new model will share a v6 powerplant with the Infiniti range.
July 1989
One month after the R32 launch in Japan. The GT-R is covered, and a Group A version is pondered, the Australian press not realising the first 500 GT-R's built are in fact the homologation build run. The July edition of Wheels puts the GT-R on the cover and calls it Godzilla.
October 1989
Gibson Motorsport take delivery of four R32 GT-R road cars from Japan. Gibson Motorsport has been recognised by Nissan Japan for their efforts with the previous HR31 GTS-R Skylines. Gibson Motorsport are the only team outside of Japan to get GT-R's at such an early stage. Initial plans are to disable the HICAS 4 wheel steering system until the rest of the car is sorted. Due to homologation, they can run the cars either with HICAS or without.
The homologated weight is 1260kg, which is still heavier than the Ford RS500 Sierra at 1185kg. Gibson expects the first engines to have an output of 600hp
