In an earlier article, I wrote about how Porsche went on the record as saying that Nissan had cheated when posting it’s Nurburgring times for the GT-R supercar.

Now this has got to sting. Nissan was quite proud of their new baby, the GT-R. They even went as far as going to the famous Nurburgring racetrack to see how their newest creation would stack up against the competition. It did well, quite well in fact.
