Nice! Thanks for the pics
Like the Ford Focus - looks like an ex-rally car 
The wing on the cobra is ridiculous - it looks like some parts that fell of a Boeing truck 
So what's NASA - it is associated with SCCA?

NASA - National Auto Sport Association - is kinda competition to the SCCA
http://www.nasaproracing.com/aboutnasa/index.html
That Cobra was far faster than one would expect it to be.. generating downforce seemed to allow it to pretty much run with impunity anywhere it went... :shock: Very intimidating looking and sounding.
The 2600lb carbon fibre body T1 Z06 was another stupid fast car out there. But the Panoz was lapping the quickest of all (hence the little number 1 decal  )
The Focus is a very recent addition to the DriversSource collection - its a Cosworth prepped overhead cam Ford Racing V8 car, built from Forc Racng parts by Mclaren cars for SEMA 2004 - setup with scary RWD.

Hehe - just shows, different strokes for different folks, the F430 was not even noticed in that crowd... I only took it's picture and put it in this thread to get people to click the topic 
And it seems to have worked...

Nice pics RC!
I like the F430 but its nice to see something different this time LOL
That cobra is one fast and bad-ass car reading you comments, and the wing! :shock:
The Porsches are nice but the Vettes are great! Love that blue racing Vette!
BMW M5 is dirty, but I kinda like it that way!
I think Nico is quite right, that car does look like the ones they use for ice racing in the Andros Trophy in France. Then again aren't ex-wrc cars also used for that?
