Automotive engineers love jets. Czinger is particularly fond of the world's fastest air-breather.
The Lockheed SR-71 “Blackbird” is one of the most famous military aircraft ever created, starting its service life with the United States Armed Forces back in 1966. The imposing reconnaissance aircraft is an utter technological marvel, remaining the fastest air-breathing aircraft in the world for nearly 60 consecutive years, despite its retirement back in 1999.
There’s no denying that this thing is gonna be fast. Czinger and crew have already proven that the 21C can smash lap records on command, ripping off legendary runs at bothand Circuit of the Americas. To that end, it would be pretty cool to have another Blackbird out there securing speed records. These special editions might ultimately be as rare as the military jet, however. Czinger only plans to build 80 21C models across all of its special edition projects.
