That list of cars is from the manufacturer for 2003. Calloway doesn't make a vette - it just modifies them. F1s aren't being made anymore are they?

to me the Dauer 962 is far more impressive though as it can handle aswell. The Callaway might be the fastest on the straight but thats about it.

He didn't say production, he said street legal
 And for a while, the Callaway Twin Turbo was an RPO (regular production option) at Chevrolet. Callaway has also done work for Mazda and Land Rover. They aren't always a tuner, sometimes they work with manufacturers, sort of like AMG with Merc. |

AMG was a tuner until it was bought by Merc. then it became part of their production lineup.
Note this is unlike Shelby and Saleen who are considered to be seperate manufacturers and the Saleen/Shelby Mustang is not considered to be a ford. |

The whole term street legal is so grey...or gray...lol
I mean there are some sub 10 second cars around here that drive on slicks, have wheelie bars and paracutes...so are they street legal too? i guess so since they can drive around just like a Geo Metro can...problem is...they dont have the 9.00 second time slips...

But if we're going to say the Callaway Sledgehammer is a production car, then we could also say a Gemballa GT2 or the Ferrari F2003GA are both production cars.
And remember any car that does not pass emitions testing with all its mods installed is not street legal. |

lingenfelter
The fastest street legal car, as far as acceleration goes, is the Lingenfelter Corvette. It does 0-60 in 1.97 sec. and a quarter mile in 8.9 on pump gas

street legal has nothing to do with production. if the car can be legally registered and driven on the road, it is street legal.

Street Legal means its running on normal gas, passes emissions and such

I read a crazy article on Lingenfelter.com when they first came out with the 225 MPH TT Vette, about 2-3 years ago.
Lingenfelter made some kinda crazy engine pumping around 1600 HP into an 80's Trans-Am, pushing it to 298 MPH... They said it was Stock-Bodied, and held the record for Stock-bodied... But im damned sure it wasnt street legal. |
