Could these be two of the cars that they used for the Toyota celebrity race that supported the Long Beach Grand Prix?

Long Beach Toyotas. 

Not a bad price at all.

Weird that they don't have dents all over them.  Those races were always a bit rough.

Seems like a cheap way to get a track day car.

In reply to Subscriber-unavailabile :

There's an earlier generation one(supposedly raced by David Hasselhof) that was for sale down here for challenge money. It needed the engine put back together & the cage was likely not legal for any sanctioned racing.

Very well could be one of these cars.  The graphics have been changed since then if so.  Probably wouldn’t have any way of finding out who drove it.  I’d like to have one of the red cars!
