Allen Lorenzo of Tomei Powered and Hoon TV collaborated in a little video production at the recent Nismo Festival that was held earlier this month. This short film is a great addition to the coverage I posted, adding the sounds and visuals that stills just can't capture. Plus seeing we will have to wait until 2013 for the next one, revisiting all this Nismo goodness seems like a pretty good idea. Hit play and enjoy!

It's time to wrap up this year's Nismo Festival coverage, something I hope you have enjoyed, as this is all the Nissan/Nismo racing car goodness we will be getting until 2013. You see, with Nismo moving into its all-new HQ in Tsurumi, Yokohama at the end of next year, it has been decided that there will not be a Nismo Festival in 2012. All efforts will be directed towards the move, which will include moving the Nismo Omori Factory operations, workshop and garages to the new site, along with...

There are the kind of views you can expect at Fuji Speedway when the skies are blue. Incredible! So after checking...

I'm going to jump right into it here with the Nismo Festival coverage and get into a little detail with some of the main cars that were on display in the pits and paddock, before I move onto some tuner cars and more action in the next Part. I decided to start off with the JRZ FIA GT1 R35, the car that Michael Krumm took to a championship win this year. The GT-R has really been making a name for itself this year in international motorsport, adding to the tradition of the legendary badge. Nismo...

Another Sunday, and another great event. Once again, just like last week after the Gazoo Racing Festival and the Toyota 86 test drive, I find myself sitting in the press room typing away. I should be on my way home but as ever traffic is terrible so why waste precious hours sitting in a car when I can give you a little teaser post from the 2011 Nismo Festival. As usual this is nothing short of a country-wide pilgrimage for Nissan enthusiasts that come to see their favorite Nismo race cars in action...
