There is only one of these Calloway Sledgehammer Corvette cars at the moment that I
know of. Callaway at the time of building this one said they could/would
make another or others for 400,000. US dollars. The top speed of 254.76
MPH was attained by John Lingenfelter as the driver, and apparently was
not an official documented recorded speed. Although the
production was only limited to one, I am sure that if more people who
bought much more expensive vehicles would have weighed the overall
package, they may have bought one of these. After all it still is a small
block Chevy, okay a 880 H.P. one at that...lol. Lets not forget that this
car is 17 years old too. The Dauer 962 LeMans was
in fact the fastest production/street legal car
ever made. I am in the process of building a similar page like this one
for the Dauer 962 Lemans, and will have a link available here to see that
page with pictures and description, thanks to another very knowledgeable
visitor that enlightened me about.
