The Hotring Racer is evidently a Stock car racing vehicle, distinguished by the rather unique design and paint schemes with fictional business ads. They resemble stock cars of the mid-1980s.
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, they are used in the "Hotring" side mission, while in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, they are used in the "8-Track" side mission.
Design

The first variant of the Hotring Racer vaguely resembles the 9th generation Ford Thunderbird. This is the only variant that is available as a reward for completing the stadium events.
The car in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City lacked a roll cage and netting, unlike the other variants This inconsistency was partially fixed in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which added netting to the vehicle.
