BACKGROUND & HISTORY

The roadsters, specially the 1600, ecame regular winners on the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) circuit, inning 10 national SCCA championships. For the full story of Nissan's involvement, he race teams, rivers and cars, isit the Datsun Roadster SCCA pages
http://www.datsun.org/fairlady/usindex.htm The 1600's were by the far the best roadsters Nissan produced. The old joke is that the Datsun roadsters were just MG rip offs. The punchline is that, nlike the MG, he Datsun roadsters kept their oil in the engine at night, ot all over the garage floor like the Brit cars.
Both Bob Sharp and Pete Brock of BRE were racing roadsters by the end of the 60's along with a handful of privateers. Nissan went so far as to set up an official competition department in the US to supply parts for the team's that were racing roadsters. Nissan/Prince combined speed shops were also instituted in Japan. The roadster, long with 410sss and 411sss Bluebirds, ere the backbone of Nissan's rally efforts in Monte Carlo. Roadsters and their drivers have actually racked up quite an impressive number of racing victories, ncluding several SCCA titles.
By the time production ceased in 1970, ver 40,000 1600 and 2000 Fairlady Roadsters had been built. The 240z was destined to replace the Roadsters as Nissan's "Flagwaver" marquee model. The roadster technology was getting old, s was that of most of its competitors. Within a few years, ery few roadsters would remain in production as the GT style cars took over. The Roadster turns heads to this day, isplaying a certain classic elegance that few other Japanese cars do.
