Mexican sports car maker VUHL will be on hand with a specially prepped 05 ROC Edition (lead image). This roofless two-seater packs a big wing out back, carbon fiber wheels at all four corners, and a Ford EcoBoost powerplant under its skin. That 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine can propel the lightweight machine from 0-60 mph in just 3.2 seconds. The six-forward gears are controlled via a sequential transmission.

Also joining in on the action is the RX Supercar Lite (shown above) and a Polaris Slingshot SLR. All three cars will enter ROC competition for their first time. They will be joined by the Ariel Atom Cup Car, Radical SR3 RSX, Whelen NASCAR racer, and the KTM X-Bow Comp R. These very different machines will be put through their paces inside Marlin's Park in Miami, and they'll be piloted by some top-tier racing talent, from Formula 1, NASCAR, IndyCar, Le Mans, Touring Cars, World Rally, and even action sports.
