CEDRIC RACE CARS
The Nissan
Cedric, it's not exactly the first name that comes to mind when you mention
race cars. But race them they did. This page pays tribute to the Cedric
race car. Admittedly it won't quite rival Ferrari's motorsport page, but
here it is anyway.
A 31
series Mark 1 Nissan Cedric competing in the East African Rally. This photo
is from Nissan's annual report for 1964, no result was listed for the car,
so I assume it didn't to too well.
In April
1968 P130 series Nissan Cedrics finish 4th and 7th outright in the East
African Rally.
In June
1968 this P130 series Nissan Cedric finished 1st in it's class in the Shell
4000 Cross-Canadian Rally.
A very
early 31 series Mark 1 Nissan Cedric racing at Suzuka in May 1963. The
car in front of it is a Toyota Crown, this picture is actually from a magazine
advertisment for Toyotas, bragging about how their Crown beat the Cedric.
(don't tell anyone that a Crown beat a Cedric, just keep it our little
secret!)
