Chassis:
Chassis '003' was one of the three CLRs entered for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. In the hands of Schneider, it was the fastest of the trio both in the official test and during qualifying. More importantly, it is the only of the four CLRs that managed to keep all fours on the road. A lap after Dumbreck had his horrendous accident, it was withdrawn from the race. For a long time it was believed that all CLRs were scrapped in attempt to forget the nasty episode. At the 2009 Modena Trackdays this proved to be a wrong assumption as chassis 003 appeared and even more surprisingly, in private ownership. The very brave owner is seen here in action in his CLR at the Nürburgring. It is not the only example in existence as one of the cars that crashed at Le Mans has been patched up and is on permanent display in the HWA showroom.
