Infiniti builds G37 Zero Car for Spanish Rally Championship

An Infiniti G37 Coupe S has been designated as the Work Car Zero in the 2011 season of the Rallies Championship of Spain – the car, supplied by Infiniti to the Royal Spanish Motorsport Federation, began its duties on April 1 in the Rally of Villajoyosa.

The collaboration expands on Infiniti’s involvement with the GT Championship of Spain – it already supplies a Safety Car to work in all events there. The Zero Car will be driven by Marc Blázquez, World TT Champion driving for Nissan, with Salvador Belzunces alongside as co-pilot.

The model chosen to support the Spanish Rally Championship is a G37 Coupe with a six-speed manual gearbox, and mechanically continues with its 320 hp, 360 Nm all-aluminium six-cylinder block as well as the standard limited slip diff.

Essentially, the Infiniti Zero Car is running at near standard specification, with a few modifications. A roll bar by VIMESA, Bilstein dampers, Galfer brake pads and brake fluid, outdoor lights and siren as well as communications equipment and a GPS were added, all prepared by Meycom in its facilities in Madrid.

Elsewhere, Sparco donated the racing seats, seatbelts, a fire extinguishing system and equipment used by the drivers, and Michelin has fitted the car with high-performance Pilot SuperSport tyres. In addition to the sponsors of the RFEA, the car also wears the colours of the Royal Automobile Club of Catalonia.
