Re: Callaway Corvette Sledgehammer

IMO callaways never really excelled in the styling department but when it came to performance The callaway vette did not disappoint. I saw a red one for sale in Pontiac a few years ago and the owner took meticulous care of it and Nice vid makes me wish I was the one that was driving but oh well

Wow, all that trouble for 380 hp. Still, after 20 years, that speed is very impressive.

IMO the C-12 made me want to buy lottery tickets.

I can walk next door and see that car right now. Callaway is right next to us and that car is in their shop.
