Is
Kia considering following the lead set by
Toyota in crafting an entry into
2011 Kia Optima Turbo SX built by Kinetic Motorsports seen above.
According to Kia, this race car was built as a prototype to showcase the performance and racing capabilites of the Optima. Performance aside, this machine, which is being shown off at the
2011 Chicago Auto Show, certainly looks the part of a credible racer.
It's worth noting that the
Kia Forte race car, also built by
Kia racing partner Kinetic, finished second in the Grand-Am race at Daytona a few weeks ago. Will the Optima be following suit? It certainly wouldn't be a complete surprise...
