I love this thread.

I believe this car pictured (the blue one, not the Corvette):


Is an Ultima. I'm fairly certain this particular example is one of the cars I saw entered in the Canadian GT Challenge Cup nine or so years ago. It is either the Ultima or the Stealth. My memories of those races are fading, but as I recall there was a couple Ultimas in the championship, one sponsored by Rogers cable and driven by a former Canadian Army General or somesuch.

Yeah, that's an Ultima right there. They were pretty popular for a while in Belcar, back when they had a very open rulebook, but have pretty much died out in (continental) Europe afaik.

If I remember correctly, the Stealth was based on the same chassis, but looked rather different. It had a somewhat GT-ONE-ish raised nose for one thing.

Anyone think that the Porsche 961 will count? Basically, it was a circuit racing version of the 959 rally raid car developed for Group B rallying and the IMSA/Le Mans GTX class in the case of the 961.

It won it's class at LM and finished 7th at LM in 1986, but crashed out of the '87 LM event. So far as is known, only one 961 was made, and the restored car is now owned by Porsche AG.

Weytech GT - as seen in the last round of the Supercar Challenge at Assen this year. It´s a tubeframed car with the body heavily based on a Dodge Viper coupe.

Space-framed Aston that was meant to run in the ill-fated Interactive Sportscar championship;

Who can forget the VW golf that ran in British GT a few years back? I've tried to forget, but alas, failed....

Don't forget the Bitter GT1 - a reworked and Viper V10 engined version of the Lotus Elise GT1.

Was anybody else present at their only race at Silverstone in '98?

I hate to make you guys do this, but would you be able to find out how these cars are performing (if still raced) or performed (if no longer active) in their respective series? Thanks in advance.

What about the NGT class Ferrari 550?

There was only one built as far as I can recall. Any ideas as to who built it or where the car is today?

The Quaife reminds me of the long tail McLaren F1 GTR.

The Quaife, Sintura, Vemac, Lister etc were all featured in a racing game on Playstation 2. I can't remember the name of the game but it was pretty cool having all those cars in one game instead of your usual 'mainstream' racecars.

Gillet Vertigo. It was FIA GT G2 champion, but only because it was the only car in that class, if I remember correctly.

While not really considered a GT car it was designated a GTP by the manufacturer, the Howmet Turbine.

I was just thinking about this car this morning after seeing it on the highlights of FIA GT Dijion 2006. it really was a class of it's own haha, the only times I remember it having any competition was a one off race for the Lotus Sport Exige 400RR in China I think.
