Although Sharp had been competing for a considerable period, his involvement with Nissan began as a dealer backed drive in the mid 1960s which would become a fully factory backed team and from the mid seventies to the early nineties, he employed John Morton who helped the team to take titles but the team became best known for taking on film star as a driver which not just brought attention to the team and series that he competed in, he helped to yield numerous championship titles throughout its history.

John Morton was an employee of Brock when he was offered the chance to race the 240Z. He made his name racing the 2000 Roadster

the car was standard other than the Mikuni carburetors they were required to fit

According to Morton, the only thing that remained from the original 240Z was the chassis plate that was removed during it's preparation as a race car
