Pro driver Randy Pobst hot laps the new 2015 Nissan GT-R Nismo spec around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for Motor Trend's 2014 Best Driver's Car and the video is intense.

While the narrator of the video assures viewers that Motor Trend has lapped many GT-R's around Laguna Seca but he warns them that this one might be the most aggressive.

The car gripped the track without problem which can be attested to its all wheel drive drivetrain and upgraded tires.

The all new aero-kit comprised of carbon fibre may also lend some help in that department as the powerful 600 HP engine rumbles across the track.

"The Nissan GT-R is one of 10 contenders competing for the title of 2014 Best Driver's Car," states the caption in the video.

The winner was announced on Thursday, September 25 exclusively on the Motor Trend Channel.

The GT-R came in 4th place behind the 3rd place 911 Turbo S, the 2nd place Alfa Romeo 4c and the winner to much surprise was the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.
