Kelly Racing to race with a Nissan Altima

Almost one year before Kelly Racing is set to debut the first non-Holden or Ford V8 Supercar, team co-owner Rick Kelly has visited the New York Motor Show to inspect the new Nissan Altima, the model the team will race in 2013.

The Altima won’t be on sale in Australia until late in 2013, but KR will be able to run using a shell of the car over the new Car of the Future chassis.

Kelly said he is a fan of the look of the new Nissan model and is already excited to debut the Altima

“It’s hugely exciting to be here in New York for the unveiling of the new Nissan Altima,” said Rick Kelly.
“Confirming Altima as the model we will race from 2013 is the next step for us as we gear up for next season.

“The Altima looks fantastic in the flesh. Now we can’t wait to get our first Nissan Altima V8 Supercar on-track for testing later this year because it’s going to look sensational as a race car.”

Buford Balony says: I hope Nissan make Holden and Ford pick up their game or they will get flogged.
