Real amateurs, here: The full-size red car is a poor excuse for anything. It appears to be a f/glass body plopped on some frame that uses a leaf-spring rear suspension. My guess it's a Camaro. And the engine they call a 427, it's a sb Chevy with a "Cobra" air cleaner. You can see the leaf spring extending out behind the rear tire. Check out those half-scale side vents. At least they acknowledge there is something at this location.

The blue car is an 1:18 scale ERTL as shown on eBay:

Buy the "Honda based Cobra" for sale on eBay and sign up to run in this event and you'll fit P.T. Barnum's business philosophy, "There's a sucker born every day."
