Flash Result>> Sumo Power Ftw!

I remember at the start of the year, a lot of people in the so-called motorsports establishment were wondering who on earth this Sumo Power lot were.

Somehow this former drift, drag and time attack team had scored themselves the job of repping the new Nissan GT1 spec R35s in the FIA GT1 World Championship. Surely they would fail!

Well I'm happy to report, that today one of the Sumo Power cars powered to victory, based on speed and speed alone. Please join me in congratulating the team in this fine effort! Nice one guys!

Thats true, when i saw Sumo Power and R35 on FIA GT1 i assumed FAIL, but i was wrong, very very wrong... this is a good example how private tuners kick ass official teams

Years ago FIA banned AWD cars in the FIA GT series to stop the GT-R's invasion on the European tracks I wonder what they gonna think of right know.

Congratulations for the Sumo Power!

@ mrchansaw, sumo power are not a privateer team they got the factory backed contract to run the cars from nissan when the gigawave team went tits up, but still a great win for the team.

YEA ANOTHER WIN FOR THE GT-R!!! Take that former people's world view!

12

FIA didn't ban AWD cars beacause of GT-R...

BTW i like water mark in the last pic.......

6 minutes left, that GT-R got by the Phoenix 'vette in what had to be one of the most beautiful passes I've ever seen in my life. He set that pass up from at least 3 laps before, and thats just sheer CLASS. And not only did he get the pass, but it was done where Bertolini couldn't follow him and pick off the 'vette too.



Folks, this was merely a qualifying race, but there were so many battles going on and they all drove so hard, you would think this was the final race and they were all in the points for the championship. My hat is off to everyone in this race, and especially to Sumo Power for their first all-out win of the year. CONGRATS!!!!

16

fast becoming a force to be reckoned with.. literally

17

That qualification race was simply fantastic to watch. From the middle pack battling it out throughout the race to the leading trio duking it out in the end, it was so fun from start to finish. Lets hope the race tomorrow is similar.



Congrats to Sumo for the win, it was very well deserved. Also props to the Corvette team for giving them that much of a fight even with the very poor tires they were running.

18

pmg omg omg the GT3 race is just as good...GO TEAM NEED FOR SPEED AND TEAM SUMO POWER!!!!!

19

This race was the most awesome race in this Season. All cars were battling against each other and there were plenty of overtaking manouver.



Gratulation SumoPower!!!
