Nissan GT-R based Team Galag TG1 Supercar

Saudi Arabia’s Team Galag has entered this Nissan GT-R based supercar in this year’s Gumball 3000 rally. Called the Team Galag TG1, it made its debut at the start of the Gumball 3000 rally in Copenhagen, Denmark last Saturday.

Built in collaboration by a British and American team, the US’ Parker Brother Concepts were responsible for building the TG1’s carbon fibre body, while the UK’s Litchfield Motors worked on the GT-R’s powertrain, tuning it to deliver 750 horsepower (552kW) and a massive 949Nm of torque.

With a curb weight of approximately 1,633kg, the TG1 is claimed to take just 2.68 seconds to reach 100km/h from a standstill before hitting a top speed of 340km/h.

The Gumball 3000 rally is in its 15^th year of running and takes participants through a few Europeans cities, finishing in Monaco in time for the Formula One Grand Prix this weekend.
