JR Rocha’s Infiniti G37 Hits the Nordschleife

Remember JR Rocha‘s heavily modified Infiniti G37, which won immortality in the GT Awards at SEMA 2008? We got to see a few high-res screenshots of the car at last year’s show, but now here it is in action around the Nurburgring in one of mimaximax’s latest videos. It looks a bit odd to see a car like this on the Green Hell, but I’m sure this clip would bring a smile to the face of its late owner.

    Yes! Finally some new damage footage!!

    Oh wait… nevermind, just found out the front of the car is supposed to look like that!

    The song is originally written by swedish troubadour Cornelis Vreeswijk and is called “Brevet från kolonien”, other known as Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh in english.

    – Playing a sim game: Engine Sound – No Music !!
    – Watching a movie from a upcoming game: Engine Sound wanted – please no music !
    – The car: Not really my cup of tea, but i do like tuned japanese cars – just not this Hip Hop/Rapper/Pimp version of a Infinity aka Nissan.
    – The release: I still don’t care cause i bought Forza 3 in october 2009, when GT5 should have been released (after tons of delays already). Lets see if october 2010 holds up – anyway – i still miss a few cars in my Forza 3 garage. If GT5 is delayed again this coming winter i can spend time with Forza 3 multiplayer modes. But i would be really frustrated if i did not buy the Xbox360 last year because of the delay of GT5. I do hope the game will arrive eventually. Also Test Drive Unlimited 2 is announced for different platforms – this could be a nice again also to fill whe waiting with. The first game had some very nice ideas of a car game – unfortunately the promising multiplayer part was coded poorly.

    If he would be a beta-tester, PD has kicked his ass to release videos. Everybody knows, that developer do not allow to release pictures and videos of their beta-products by testing persons.

    – The car : is pretty nice.
    – Dust plumes : are suspect.
    – Music : Glad I don’t do ship cruises, All you need is some twat to appear with a mic.
    – News : still waiting – ho hum

    Some of you are saying that you don’t remember seeing the car in the demo. Maybe that’s because this ISN’T a demo. Maybe this Minimax (or whatever his name is) is a tester of the final product? what is your opinion?

  7. dearlybeloved

    A reason that the game needs to be released ASAP? the owner of the car will never have the opportunity to drive his car. Please KY/PD, please release details and/or the game because I am worried that the Grim Reaper will be here before the game will.

    Peace out.

    My God, that’s an ugly car. Hope it’s not required for any events; I don’t allow ghettoboxes into my GT garage.

  9. Shokz

    To be honest I think it looks absolutely badass :D Far better than all the Mercs they’ve been so keen to promote lately anyway :/ But I do agree about the ridiculously bad music…

  10. speedy_2

    1. Video of a Video sucks
    2. We already know of the car & track.
    3. Why not at least let us hear the game
    4. That car is hideous.

  11. maxpontiac

    Nice car. I can’t wait to try it out in GT5.

    I also love the choice of music that used. It’s perfectly fitting for some of the whiners on this site.

  12. craig

    awesum another vid of a shed on wheels on nurberg.im fed up of vids showcasing the graphics/gameplay ,show us sum fucking tuning !!!!

  13. Chris

    Whats with the terrible music!? All the recent videos are terrible. I hope this isnt going to be in the game.

  14. dearlybeloved

    @iucidium, nice!! the music from gt1! How cool is your taste. For me, when i am gonna be chillin and just cruising in the game, it’s got to be Prince’s album N.E.W.S. that album has such a cool jazz feel to it.

    Peace out.

  15. chepe371

    God, no videos, people bitch, 20+ vids in good enough quality and people still bitch, GT5 will come out and peolpe will still bitch.

    @Sele1981

    That car was in the tokyo demo with some of the other SEMA GT winners a while back.
    Can’t get over how good this game is looking even though its filmed off a TV. Awesome.

    @Dearlybeloved
    I intend on doin’ some KILLSWITCH ENGAGE while driving some WRC. Ohhhhhhhh, yeah.

    PS Since we’ll be able to play NASCAR cars on any track, does that include rally stages? lol

  18. ismellbacon611

    that’s pretty cool but i dont think its odd to see it on the ring … just odd to see it in silver instead of black and without all the stickers and decals from the original car. now then if only we could get a release date within the next 2 months (e3 2010). we’re bound to get the date very soon and now i don’t feel as bad … bad as in the feeling of never being able to play the game… for some reason i feel like we are oober close to seeing this game like i don’t have to worry anymore. and for me thats a plus so help me make my beliefs come true sony(with new slogan make.believe) and release gt5!!!!

  19. dearlybeloved

    A all time classical piece of music. I think that the piece of music is just phenomenal. Can’t wait to play GT5 with the custom soundtrack option and this will be there being played while I ‘drive’ my cars.

    While on the subject of music, what pieces will you be listening to in GT5?
    Any thoughts on that will be of help to me.

    Peace out!

    @ Lachlan1662: I’m sure it would be something like ” yes, we are about 75% complete, looking to release by end of this year, maybe.”

  21. Methroix

    I thought I was the only one to think that’s one fugly front end on that poor G37, but it’s good to see at least Bernd is with me on this.
    I second NBH; show me some rally stages to go with those rally cars.

  22. Big Ron

    mimaximax should think about his music taste……really. When I saw the video, I immediatly had the wish to cook something. And I don´t like to cook.

    The car is ugly as hell.

  23. NBH

    Nice video but we already know the car and track will be in GT5. I’m desperate for some proper information like seeing a WRC stage, I mean it’s in the game and we have seen nothing. What about an idea of car tuning, how about a bit of news about the new damage model. When the japan release was delayed they said they would announce something soon but it’s gone totally quiet.

  24. Darn thing

    I hope I hear some news from Poly or Kaz…………It’s been already few months since they didn’t release any news of GT5…..
