    The new 2008 NSX GT500 test car is going FR with the 3.4L V8. Front engine head 2 head with the GTR



    I got some new information about the engine. It is the HF386E.



    Updated on 25-07-2008

    On 18-07-2008, last year's Super GT champion driver (#8 ARTA NSX) Ito Daisuke was involved in a serious car crash when filming the new Hot Version Vol.94. From what I read in some japanese sites, the car that was wreaked was a R35 GTR. He'll miss out on Round 5 and 6 of the SUPER GT, Akira Iida will be replacing him for the 2 races. Some translated site are below.

    Lets hope he get better soon.

    Is there live streaming of Super GT on the net anywhere?

    What channels broadcast Super GT? (I know motors TV does but I can't find a stream for that channel)
