Yes your very much right on this. The roadcar that the racer was homologated from in the last years of it's racing career was the twin turbo roadcar. There was never a S7R twin turbo racecar. The closest thing would've been the Saleen S7 Competition twin turbo but that was a road car with S7R aero bits.
