Default Rally Z...again?

So for some reason I was curious/thinking about this rally Z and just found out it was sold Nissan 370Z / Rally cars for sale.

Apparently this happened started last year in 2012 but the race is in 7 days

Then I found this ->Psychedelic Nissan 370Z Nismo Enters 2013 Gumball 3000 Rally - Carscoops that is happening in 2 days. Different type of rally but interesting nonetheless.

Just wanted to share.

After I saw a Z turned into a rally car my skull imploded.

It's just weird. Pretty cool though.

The rally Z, that is something I would love to do in this car, but just dont have the money to do that. Everything that I have seen on here, that by far is the coolest! Not talking the gumball, that comes in 4th. What doran does comes in 2nd, 3rd would be a 600whp single turbo set-up.

Looked like a custom single out the right side. So that elminates the RC single version, since that comes out on the left.

Let me know if you find out where we can purchase this "psychedelic" wrap that they used.

Thanks,

I wonder what kind of suspension the rally Z uses... that rally course looks infinitely smoother than some of the public roads around here

Thanks,
I dont think it was a wrap but a paint job. At least that's what it says on the website.

Also, here's an updated point's list they have (same website as before) here Looks like the Z is sitting at 48 points...

That's so badass... To see the z as a rally contender. The gum ball 3000 is more of a road race than a rally from what I have seen in the past. It's actually more like a bunch of rich people driving really rxprnsivr cars across a continent. They did the 3000 across the USA last year if I remember correctly. Started in Times Square and ended up somewhere on the west coast.... Kind of like the cannonball run. Oh ****... Did I just date myself?

Seemed pretty cool. I just think that All wheel drive is soooo much better for rally; such an advantage. I'm not knocking the Z, just not sure how it can stand agains AWD cars....
