Chassis:
Built ahead of the 1999 season, chassis C21 was one of the Viper Team Oreca cars for the 1999 season. It was briefly raced in Europe including at Silverstone and Le Mans before it was shipped to the United States to compete in the inaugural American Le Mans Series. Repainted red with silver stripes, it scored five consecutive class victories, including wins at Laguna Seca and in the Petit Le Mans. It was subsequently entered in the 2000 Daytona 24 Hours for Olivier Beretta, Karl Wendlinger and Dominique Dupuy. Starting from 21st on the grid, they scored a spectacular outright victory. Still wearing its Daytona battle damage, chassis C21 is seen here in the Walter P. Chrysler Museum.
