Nissan To Ready Kers / Awd Issues Earlier Returning To Wec
Nissan today announced that it volition delay its homecoming to the LM P1 degree of the FIA World Endurance Championship together with instead focus on technical issues that challenged its race squad during the Le Mans 24 Hours.
Issues alongside the unloose energy recovery organisation (ERS) meant that Nissan had to run at the Le Mans 24 Hours on engine ability alone. The bespoke Nissan V6 3-litre twin turbo petrol engine together with the unique aerodynamics of the GT-R LM NISMO proved to live on the primary strengths of the machine at Le Mans simply without a fully working ERS, many of the car's other systems were compromised.
"We know people volition live on disappointed simply live on assured that nobody is to a greater extent than disappointed than us," said Shoichi Miyatani, President of NISMO. "We are racers together with nosotros desire to compete simply nosotros likewise desire to live on competitive. That is why nosotros accept chosen to transcend along our examination programme together with hit the GT-R LM NISMO for the rigid contest nosotros confront inward the World Endurance Championship. When yous nowadays yous don't hand upwards at the outset hurdle. We are committed to overcoming this challenge."
"We've said it earlier simply conception hurts," said Darren Cox, Global Head of Brand, Marketing & Sales, NISMO. "We've built an LM P1 machine that is really unlike to other racing cars equally nosotros transcend along to stimulate motorsport innovation. The beauty of this programme is that people accept got behind us together with they are willing us to succeed. This has shown us ane time once to a greater extent than that people desire something unlike inward motorsport together with that gives us increased motivation to brand our LM P1 machine competitive."
Nissan volition transcend along the examination programme for the GT-R LM NISMO, predominantly simply non solely inward the United States. Media updates volition live on issued equally the car's evolution continues. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 determination on the engagement for Nissan's homecoming to the World Endurance Championship volition live on made inward due course, depending on the progress of the examination programme.
The GT-R LM Nismo features a unique front-engine layout, providing some aerodynamic advantages past times allowing the raise bodywork to shape a highly aero efficient tear-drop shape. The projection was originally conceived equally an all-wheel-drive, alongside about one-half of the GT-R LM Nismo's claimed 1,250 horsepower to live on delivered past times a dual flywheel based stimulate organisation to the raise axle.
The to a greater extent than oftentimes than non mechanical transmission included a long tailshaft to the raise of the machine coupled to a high mounted differential together with a convoluted drivetrain consisting of a pair of high mounted outrigger gearboxes that stride downwards to a brusque fix of driveshafts that stimulate the raise wheels from the base of operations of these gearboxes.
The entire practise is done to forestall sticking driveshafts through the tunnels together with reducing aero efficiency although it's clear that such a organisation is trading differential/gearbox unloose energy efficiency losses for nipper aero efficiency gains.
It's non for sure this organisation fifty-fifty made it past times the 3D rendering stage. As tin live on seen from the pictures below no raise cycle stimulate organisation was fitted to whatever of the Nismo cars entered at LeMans then it's unclear if the flywheel hybrid organisation was fifty-fifty on-board during the event.
