Of course they're not slow. These "stock cars" have dry-sump V8's pushing 800 hp and have tube-frame chassis with fg panels on the outside. It's just like the Ford Taurus you get from your local dealership.

ALMS GT class is probably the closest professional racing these days that's based on real production models.
