Just uploading this so you guys can see the liveries which I find to be hilarious. The series is called Turismo Carretera or TC and it's from Argentina, it's hugely popular over there.

These are just some of my favourite things...

Hey, it's the racing version of my favourite road car, I wonder why I like it so much. Plus, the engine does 9,000rpm!

The Ferrari F2001 will always be my favourite F1 car, good old Micheal before his retirement and accident.

The Accent rally car is a weird one for me. Sure, it was in the Gran Turismo games, but I never really payed any attention to it. One day I looked up some old videos of it. Now I like it quite a lot.

I love the livery on the Von Ryan Racing 12c GT3. The car looks good in blue.

What needs to be said about the R8 LMP900?

Also, have a Turbo Grand Prix that was run up Pikes Peak in 1989:

No idea how fast it ran, but it still did it nonetheless.

The Accent Rally car is one of my all time favorites. Possible Dirt Rally DLC Codemasters?

The MAC's IT special in its only appearance during glorious "anything goes" days of Can-Am.

This oddball had 4 two-stoke motorcycle engines that each engine powered a wheel to the car. It didn't do well.

The e0 pp100, the very car that actually angered some Pikes Peak enthusiasts for being a pretty quick hillclimb car that was also electric.
 
Just two of many obscure racing cars that don't get much attention:

The Sintura S99 was horribly overlooked. I used to watch it and cheer it on in British GT against the McLaren F1 GTR and Lister Storm. That made one hell of a sound thanks to the Judd 4.0 V10 engine.
 
As far back as I can remember, other than being raised on NASCAR every Sunday, my other love were these:

And I hope that some day, somewhere, someone will bring back the Super Touring rules but with modern cars. Maybe something using compact cars like the Nissan Sentra, Hyundai Elantra, etc. 2.0L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder's, etc, etc.
 
I love driving these things in rFactor 2, would love to take a twirl in them in real life :D USF2000s!!!
