Looked like a GTL cars to me, possibly from the folks at Jerry Woods. You passed two. Didn't see a Fabcar from where the video started.

Fabcar, a company owned and operated by a race engineering wizard named Dave Klym. Did a fair number of "special projects," like updates to factory Porsche race cars to extend their competitive life and help them beat factory cars...

That's one of them, but the car in the video is another, MUCH faster in a straight line, version!

Yup, both of them are fairly new. The GTL class out here in Northern CA is sanctioned under NASA and runs within the PRC. You can look up the exact info there.

The FABCAR in question is the camera car.

Seen here in 2015 during the July Vintage in Elkhart:
