Spy Photos: Nissan GT-R, courtesy of the Ring's webcam

The posters at the NASIOC forums always seem to find primo stuff, and today's no exception. The entrance to the Nürburgring Nordschleife has a webcam mounted above it, which you can check throughout the day as it refreshes. (That sucking sound you hear is the at-work productivity of enthusiasts everywhere being vacuumed into oblivion.)
Sometimes you can eyeball some really neat stuff getting ready to enter the Green Hell, like, for instance, this black Opel Zafira. We kid, we kid! Of greater interest is the passel of GT-R prototypes lined up behind that Zafira, on the other side of the fence. And that wasn't the only look at the upcoming barn-burner from Nissan -- you can see a couple of others in the gallery below. Make sure you check out the full NASIOC thread, too. In it, you'll get peeks at a Gallardo Superleggera, a bunch of Morgan owners out for a ride together, what looks to be a gathering of every sportbike on the European continent, and a Phoenix Racing Aston Martin DBRS9 getting ready for a closed-track session. Awesome stuff.
Thanks to Ilya for the tip!

Don't forget the 911 Turbo that follows it around in every test.

omg I made autoblog! I feel like a celebrity. "(That sucking sound you hear is the at-work productivity of enthusiasts everywhere being vacuumed into oblivion.) " that comment is so true. I sit at work hitting F5 almost all day. I would post more pics, but can't host any at work, but my NASIOC pals always come through!

I believe it was pointed out in the thread, but that's not one of the Prodrive Aston Martins. In fact, it's not a DBR9, but instead a DBRS9 run by Phoenix Racing.

Protoype: You are correct. After I saw the car on the cam today, I googled the name I noticed on the truck, and found out the info about that car, recent news too: http://www.the-paddock.net/content/view/241409/38/

Thanks for postings this Alex!
I'm not really a member of NASIOC (well I have an account but I don't post since I'm 14 years old and don't even have a license). I just go there because I enjoy looking at members' cars and reading about them. I just found this really cool thread on the forums and decided to send the link to Autoblog.
I hope you will enjoy looking at the pics!
