Saw a racing Omega at Brands Hatch in May this year - looked awesome and was mighty fast!

Its a 'V8 Star' racing car - a racing car from europe from a kind of one-make series that has stopped now I think.  They all had the same spaceframe chassis and V8 racing engine, but with a variety of different shells on top to look like standard(ish) cars.  From memory there was a Jag S type as well as a few others.

I did see someone selling one that was road-legal recently!!!

Do a google a check it out :-)
