“Are you aware that in 1991 John Lingenfelter took his Personal 1986 C4 Corvette Coupe to the 1991 Road & Track Shootout in Fort Stockton, Texas and won in all 3 categories on the 2½ Mile FIRESTONE Test Track John’s Corvette outperformed 18 of the World’s Fastest Cars in all 3 Categories:
• 0 to 60 ………………………………………………………..………..3.4 sec
• ¼ Mile Speed …………………………………..11.8 sec @ 121.5 mph
• Top Speed…….. 204 mphAnd that this was accomplished despite the fact that it’s total package cost was 10% of the cost of other competitors in the pack, which included an AWD Twin Turbo V-12 F-40 Ferrari, a Lamborghini Diablo and a Safir GT40 Mark V – to name a few of the cars participating!
You may know that the only street car that was faster from that era was the Callaway Sledgehammer C-4 Corvette which was bid to $600,000 in 2014 at the Meacham Auction in Kissimmee ( It did not meet it’s reserve of $750,000 ) and that Lingenfelter was a part of it’s development!
This is a unique opportunity to own Lingenfelter’s personal Corvette which has been featured in Road & Track, Popular Hot Rod and many other magazines.
This same car represents a matchless heritage of reinventing automotive standards. Lingenfelter used it as a Test Bed for his performance products which were later used in the Sledgehammer and numerous other GM cutting edge performance cars. He used many drive train packages but the rolling chassis remained the same. Driving at 200 + mph takes special equipment, and not just under the hood!
