Turbocharged Track Cars

The Nissan GT-R Track Edition Offers Increased Stability and Power

— September 27, 2016 — Autos
The Nissan GT-R model has long been a highly feared vehicle in international race circuits, and this fear factor is only set to be boosted further with the introduction of the new and improved Nissan GT-R Track Edition, a vehicle that is based on the 2017 version of the GT-R family.

The Nissan GT-R Track Edition is well and truly a supercharged monster, and one that retains the 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 engine of its predecessor. However, it now is capable of churning out an increased 562 horsepower as well as 470 pound-feet of torque. These specs are taken to their limit by the inclusion of aerodynamic re-engineering that allows this vehicle to absolutely roar through the track while still offer supreme control.

This is a track car that goes to show that intelligent design and engineering can allow for vehicles that are ridiculously fast but still stable in terms of handling.
