As mentioned in episode 68, here is our FULL INTERVIEW with three Nissan and NISMO engineers:

Greg Nelson - Program Manager, Nissan Motorsports

Kazuya Magoori (Mago) - Senior Manager, Nissan Motorsports & NISMO

Koichi Ogawara (Ko) - Chief Track Engineer, NISMO

After an eventful race 1 at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, Mike was fortunate to sit with Greg, Mago, and Ko for a bit inside the TechSport Racing office to talk about the new Nissan Z as well as its performance (so far) during its return to GT4 American racing. Nissan intends for their GT4 motorsports program to continue into 2024 and beyond; continuously improving their Z car based on the data they are logging now. In addition, we got to know the engineers personally by asking them about their favorite Nissan car. 

We hope you enjoy our conversation! We would like to thank TechSport Racing, Nissan, and NISMO for their hospitality & support of our podcast, and hope to visit with them again!

KANPAI!

With little time before the start of race #2 during the GT4 America series at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin, TX, TechSport Racing co-drivers of the #23 Nissan GT4 Z car, Bryan Heitkotter & Tyler Stone, sit with Mike to talk about how they secured their opportunity to race for TechSport Racing this season as well as talk about their qualifying and race 1 performances that weekend.

HUGE thanks for to TechSport Racing, Nissan, and NISMO teams who were on site the entire race weekend, and granted us access to their paddock. They were all such gracious hosts, and new friends of ours. We look forward to covering future GT4 races!
