Looking for a race car with a Le Mans background? Well, guess what? You don’t need to spend a fortune to grab a piece of racing history. Oil Stain Lab’s Half11 Prototype, a street-legal speedster, is up for grabs at a surprisingly affordable $600,000 through The Arsenale.
Even though the Half11 hasn’t actually competed in the famous endurance race, it totally captures the vibe and style of Le Mans. This cool racer rocks an open-top design inspired by the speedy cars from the 1960s. It’s not based on any existing car, but car buffs will notice bits that remind them of the classic Porsche 911 in the nose, headlights, and fenders.
Now, let’s pop the hood on the Half11. It’s got a mid-mounted Chevy LS V-8 engine and a six-speed manual transmission borrowed from a 996-generation 911 GT2. This street-legal speed demon pumps out a solid 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. Weighing in at just 1,850 pounds, the Half11 can go from 0 to 60 mph in a lightning-fast 2.5 seconds and max out at 200 mph.
Oil Stain Lab’s plan? They’re making only 25 Half11 Prototypes, keeping in line with the FIA’s homologation rules. By putting this retro beauty into production, they’re giving fans a shot at owning a one-of-a-kind race car that brings back the glory days of Le Mans.
