There are three variants of the Hotring Racer, however, they all perform exactly the same. They all resemble cars from the late '80s/early '90s, presumably based on NASCAR stock-cars: The first variant (internally named "hotring") vaguely resembles a Ford Taurus, the second (internally named "hotrina") is a Chevrolet Camaro, the third (internally named "hotrinb") has design aspects from a Chevrolet Monte Carlo (rear side window) and an Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme (the grille). The "hotring" in GTA Vice City noticeably lacks the roll cages and netting of the "hotrina" and "hotrinb", an inconsistency partially rectified for the GTA San Andreas rendition with the addition of netting. | There are three variants of the Hotring Racer, however, they all perform exactly the same.
