Automotive perfection. Puts a lot (most? all?) of modern hyper cars to shame.

Great Video!!

What’s all the rapid beating about?

Bro pulled a VHS tape

Koenigsegg built a CCGT for 24h of Le Mans, the car never raced. Maby it's a great topic for a new video.

Pretty sure that record is held by a TT Ford GT now. Something like 315mph in the standing mile.

Greatest car to never race would be Porsche LMP-2000!

This statement is a bit misleading... as it only applies to package-spec tuning house cars. Sometime in the late '90s or early '00s (2001, I believe)... you could purchase a Lingenfelter Corvette capable of topping this speed.... to the tune of 270+ mph. The catch was, you had to specify a different axle, which wasn't adverised, or even openly offered. In as-spec trim, it topped out around 230/235, with optional gearing. With the un-spoken optional axle, it is rumored to breach 270mph. From my understanding, despite a handful being sold... the test was deliberately not sanctioned/officiated, for the sake of liability. I don't find this hard to believe, as Lingenfelter had reliably produced in excess of 1,200 reliable horsepower at this stage.

I wonder if it's the ZR1 Corvette those were built in 1988 to 1990 they had the second key and a guy from Lawrence County where I live had one and him and Sam Connor wrecked on hwy36 I believe in the speake community and was running no telling how fast and ran off into a open pasture with 1 big oak tree and they hit it disintegrating the car around them killing them instantly it was horrendous no fire just sure impact and that car was picked up in pieces mostly by hand after that but it was bad ass

Only Ferrari would make their individual throttle plates look like a cigar cutters.

yeah it was custom built and not a production car. custom hotrods arent "street cars"

My mazdaspeed protege came with a callaway induction system, and looked the name up leaned so much about this man’s history so glad others are finding out his cars and his story

The F50 Must have been a really fun thing to drive! the sound is insane!!!! but let's make something clear... there is nothing to be proud about that engine from that insanely bad Ferrari F1 from the 80's/90's.... that F1 Ferrari of the 80's and 90's was the definition of Ferrari being overrated and loved just because of their name! it was an absolute shitbox! it had the old transaxle layout of the 70's F1 Ferraris, it was slow, off balance, and not reliable, and it never came close to winning a championship! when Alain Prost was sacked because complaining about Ferrari's F1 being trash... i know Alain made a lot of excuses and complained... but this time HE WAS RIGHT!! it was rubbish! ONLY ALAIN HIMSELF WAS GOOD ENOUGH TO DRIVE THAT AND BE A LITTLE FAST! Even though that with corruption got a greater salary than all other teams because they're Ferrari!!.... well guess what! Ferrari is rubbish!!!! Only Michael Schumacher was able to get them out of their rubbish... you know that old saying "it's about the driver"... But in spite of this... Man i love your content keep it up!

you from new york????

pffft, not greatest, not race car

geat video!!!

Awful title I gotta say, almost didnt click the video, you lucky.

Beautiful documentary, bravo.

Thanks for making this. I was really sad when Reeves passed away. I remember seeing a Callaway at the Chevy dealership very well engineered. The only thing that I would ask that doesn’t make sense is that I’ve always heard and read at the time that the sledgehammer had the DN 4+3 wich was available at the time the ZF would be later before it was sold However since you mentioned that they respond quickly please confirm this😅

One of the modern racecars to never race has to be the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12, the car's track only, yet it never participated in any Lamborghini race events or championships. It should've been the one to enter WEC

Correndo ou não,a F50 e na verdade todos os bólidos mostrados no vídeo são verdadeiras obras de arte sobre 4 rodas.

That NFS music in the background really takes me back to NFS High Stakes and the F50 being my favourite car to use

Thank you very much for this video! Great content, and such a great story behind a legend and legendary car. Keep it coming!

Amazing work. Thank you

This channel is prob the most underrated on the tube….100 gonna blow up. 🤙🏽

Keep doing this. Love your channel it will be a repository of automotive history.

The minute they said 1988. I knew it was only one car, Sledgehammer

Reeves Callaway was disqualified from the FV National Championship in 1973, after failing post race inspection. ( No turbos were involved). The car flipping in the front of the pack at the start was Denny Ura, a friend and competitor of mine. I beat Callaway earlier that year at Nelson Ledges, in my first National, at age 22. I also know the person who owns "Sledgehammer", now.

You make rly good videos bro..keep up the good work

Compared to GTP, every car that came after, is meh.

Need For Speed music

Always heard the names Callaway and lingenfelter involved with corvettes but never knew they had mixed history like this. Awesome story. Its cool to see these were just guys starting in their garage, just like me

Amazing job ! Instant sub to the channel ! Where did you found the aerial tilt-shift views of the Norschleife ?

The nfs high stakes ost 🔥

People used to argue about this car non-stop on streetfire. 1938 Audi streamliner type C did 270MPH on the public autobahn. Audi made 5 (or more) of them. In 1939, Mercedes was prototyping a 6 wheel streamliner, projected to go over 310 MPH. Hitler invaded Poland instead.

Great video bud. Really enjoyed that one.

"Caution: loud V12 noises" Yeah, that's what we are here for 😂 Great video!

Corvette sledge hammer did 264+ MPH...

I just subscribed because of this BRILLIANT video! Well done.❤

Koenigsegg CCGT

This is the last random sentence I will be writing and I am going to stop mid-sent

The balloons floated away along with all my hopes and dreams.

At that moment he wasn't listening to music, he was living an experience.

I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence.

I thought red would have felt warmer in summer but I didn't think about the equator.

To get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with.

Argue for your limitations, and sure enough theyre yours.
