2009 Nissan GT-R Time Attack & Battle Behind The Scenes of Best Motoring


December 21st, 2007



GT Channel captured exclusive footage from the first Best Motoring shoot of the 2009 Nissan GT-R.

Keiichi Tsuchiya's GT-R Time Attack Sneak Preview
The only time we've ever seen Keiichi Tsuchiya this impressed is when Bobby Billard showed up at American Touge 3.  Here is a video of Tsuchiya taking off for his first ever time attack of the 2009 Nissan GT-R.  Not only was he impressed but everybody was dumbfounded but how fast this stock GT-R was.  One minute 2 seconds around Tsukuba is just ridiculous.



A Best Motoring video would not be complete without its signature battle.  But with this new GT-R, the opponents had to be carefully choosen.  One world class super performance car after another, only Best Motoring can gather this caliber of cars and pit them against each other by professional drivers.
Besides only Best Motoring is crazy enough to take on the liability insurance of this battle.

Here is the lineup:

Porsche 911 GT3 (Naoki Hattori)
Porsche 911 Turbo (Takayuki Kinoshita)
Lamborghini Gallardo Super Leggera (Daisuke Ito)
Honda NSX-R (Seiji Ara)
Nissan GT-R (Keiichi Tsuchiya)

Battle Opponents of the new Nissan GT-R Video



The Lamborghini Gallardo SL makes its debut appearance in Best Motoring in the first GT-R battle!  The driver is no other than 2007 Super GT champion Daisuke Ito.  This will be a match to see.
Often in Best Motoring the grid positions will be decided depending on the slower times.  Basically if your prelim attack time is slowest you get to be in the front row.  This makes the Best Motoring battles more exciting as the faster cars try to over take the cars in front within the few laps provided.  This battle was a 4 lap battle.  Unfortunatley we can't show you the entire battle or tell who won.  We'd get fired and be on the streets washing cars before you can say "Tsukuba".  But maybe we can tell you which cars were in the front 2 grids.  Try guessing...

 The Porsche 911 Turbo and the GT3...yeah no shit.
