A Corvette Dies
As one racing Corvette (Embassy Racing’s) comes to life, so
we hear of the ‘death’ of another – a ‘94
/ ’95 Callaway version. Joost Custers explains…
The fact that I had a
car accident last week isn't worth mentioning, but my car is being
repaired by none other than Belcar racer Marc Vannerum. I took my
Mitsubishi to Marc this week, and while he was looking at the damage,
I was looking at photographs and models of the cars Marc has driven.
One of the most
beautiful was a former Agusta Racing Callaway Corvette, one of the
two team cars at Le Mans in 1995. Marc Vannerum sold the car to
Frank Hahn (who drove the SRT Corvette this year during the Zolder
24 hours) and the latter still competed in several races during
the 2001 season (photograph) with the car.
Unfortunately, a huge
fire three or four months ago destroyed Frank's business and also
the gorgeous Corvette ... a sad end for a beautiful car.
