No, looked elsewhere and not listed for their other models either.

Some of the things said in the video are in the article below.

We did all of the body work in CFD (computational fluid dynamics) and all of the chassis in FEA (finite element analysis),” Hall assured.

“It has a full flat floor and a 15-degree diffuser at the back. In the current configuration it makes 1,000 pounds of downforce at 125 miles per hour (and that’s trimmed out, we could make a lot more). The rear wing is a Selig 1223 profile carbon wing, same on the front, they front splitter is actually a true wing profile.”

Searching "Falcon F100 turismo that was raced by Alberto Beguerie in the Argentinian racing series Turismo Carretera" yielded some interesting stuff. Here's another one with "Annan TC" on it.

The aerodynamic design of the car was entrusted to an engineer specialising in the aerodynamics of racing aeroplanes. The resemblance was unmistakeable. The single-seater was shaped like a rocket: a long bonnet, rounded at the front, with a tapered rear… Driven by an eight-cylinder 4,825cc engine, the Nervasport combined power and aerodynamic performance.
The past is a bottomless well.
