Car-spotting thread

Most of them rusted away or were rollover victims. My ex-BIL rolled his on RT80 back around ‘92ish.
was also going to say those were called the Rollover II when I remember seeing them around. funny is my HS friend had one and he was driving me back and forth to school for a few months when I was on crutches due to a foot injury. I was probably safer walking.
 
Drove by Watkins Glen yesterday, no real races going on but a BMW club had a track day. A Porsche (GT3?) and a C8 (non-Z06) were obviously guests and were lapping together. The gap was consistent over multiple laps. Surprised since I thought the GT would be a good bit faster.

P.S. Who knows what mods were done to either but the exhaust on both was pretty tame.

I wound up traveling through Nashville over the weekend which happened to coincide with an IndyCar event there. I've been to a few races over the years, mostly F1 in Montreal, Indianapolis, Spa, etc but I hadn't seen any modern Indy events. We were there for qualifying on Saturday, which was pretty cool. The cars are obviously extremely fast, although they don't have quite the braking performance of F1. In addition to the Indycar stuff, there was some GT3/GT4 racing and "Super trucks" which were pretty hilarious to watch. Unfortunately I only grabbed video of most of the racing, but here's a picture of one of the Toyota GR series cars that was racing in a support series:
