I notice that right at the end of the video you can hear the Audi going though the gears
it's still early days for the Nissan, but it dose look good on the track

From Autosport
Nissan was forced to call an early end to this week's test at Sebring with its new GT-R LM NISMO World Endurance Championship contender.

The radical LMP1 ran at the Florida circuit on Monday and Tuesday before a component failure resulted in the Japanese manufacturer abandoning a test that could have continued until Friday.

GT-R LM technical director Ben Bowlby told AUTOSPORT: "It was actually a very minor thing, but we just don't have a spare here."
He refused to specify the exact component that had failed, but said it was was "to do with the engine mounting".
Bowlby explained that Nissan had chosen to test at the bumpy Sebring International Raceway to "accelerate the durability cycle".
"We've spent a lot of time at Austin, which is very smooth, so we wanted to come to a particularly harsh environment like Sebring," he continued.
He claimed that the Nissan completed a total of 68 laps over the two days, but wouldn't disclose lap times.

I wouldn't look much in the times. Plus, Nissan is a low-drag design, not really suitable to begin with for Sebring.

You go to Sebring so you can beat the S**T out of your car and if something is going to break it will be there

Interesting how Toyota chooses the inboard rear BHH option. Last year's 919 started with that BHH position, but they found the top position more efficient, and switched accordingly.
