The 1976 Greenwood Corvette was a high-performance endurance silhouette racing car designed by Greenwood Corvettes for use in endurance racing. Despite bearing the Corvette name, the Greenwood Corvette shared close to nothing with that of the Corvettes of the time apart from a passing resemblance. The car's distinctive shape gave it the nickname of "Batmobile". The 1976 Greenwood Corvettes were built on tubeframe chassis and competed in the IMSA Camel GT Series, Trans Am Series and occasionally at Le Mans. The cars were powered by 7.7L aluminum big block V8s producing 725 horsepower, which were powerful enough to give these cars 215 mph (346 km/h) on Le Mans's Mulsanne Straight. Twelve chassis were produced.
