Looks an interesting chassis I've not seen one before now but is the 1:1 LM GT-R FWD ? I very much doubt it is

really a fwd LM car I thought they were rwd/4wd wouldn't think that fwd is very good at speed in corners the wing would push the rear down and lift the fornt

It was another one of Nissans mad moments I think. I can't remember how it did I think it had a decent pace but had reliability issues.

I don't follow LM so wouldn't know the only motor sports I watch are WRC and BTCC :good:

It is FWD but with 1 or 2 electric motor assisting rear wheels. it was running wider front wheel, narrower rear.

Yep it was a Nissan / Cosworth venture. FWD and front engined.

3 cars were entered in the 2015 Le Man race - 2 cars didn't finish and 1 wasn't classified as it didn't complete minimum 70% race distance after 24 hours.

The programme was dropped at the end of 2015.
