(Notes): use space to see parts and stuff (Credits): @Spitfire-747SP & @IguanaLover for some internals (Lore): The First Prototypes for the 676A were discovered during testing back in 1986. The Prototype appropriately code-named "Project Dorito" was spotted getting towed out of the Vanday Test track after it reportedly "caught air and -freaking- flew!". Employees at the facility said "it was a completely unexpected event that I will remember forever", Vanday later tried covering up the incident by threatening the press with "legal action" if any of this makes it to the general public due to the secretive nature of the vehicle. A couple months later Vanday was spotted with a new prototype on the track this time it didn't fly, but instead it ended up catching fire due to an electrical issue harming the driver in the process, Vanday did not release any info on this incident to this day due to "legal reasons" and the fact that 99% of the witnesses were "laided off" the day after makes it a very suspicious situation. Once Vanday finally got a working prototype in 1989, they ended up with a final product called the "676A" and which they produced 2 of. The "676A"s ended up being separated as Chassis #1 was De-Tuned just to fit into Group C regulations and Chassis #2 was kept at the Vanday facility as a backup. Throughout the 676A's career it only made a total of 1 victory in its entire career being its first and only victory in 1993 at -------- ------- ------- ------- in -------. In 1995 the 676A was in first position to win until it struck a barrier losing control and hitting the opposing barrier splitting the car into 2 killing the driver, a spectator and injuring 5 others. Vanday ended up switching to the 676B in 1996 after the incident due to investors dropping out due to concerns with the press and bad reputation. Vanday ended up putting Chassis into storage at an undisclosed location while Chassis was recovered, rebuilt and put in the Vanday Museum. To this day we don't know what Chassis looked like or even if it existed, all we know is that it's in "storage" at an undisclosed location... ©2025 Autotrend, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
