Callaway C7

Description[]

The Callaway C7 was a highly unsuccessful race car intended to be entered into the GT1 category of the BPR Global GT Series. The car was developed from 1993 to 1996, and is notable as being the first Callaway car to not be based on a Corvette or existing designs. The car was intended to be first entered in the 1996 24 Hours of Le Mans, but failed to pre qualify; the car was subsequently entered into the 24 Hours of Daytona. At this race, the C7 was more successful, leading the race at the 12 hour mark, but an oil pump failure ultimately ended the car's race. The continually changing rules of the GT1 class ultimately obsoleted the car, and the car was never re-entered into another competition. Two cars were produced; one is owned by Reeves Callaway.
