NO NO NO, getting the front wheels off the ground. I can post a video of my Vette doing it but it would invovle a jack.

I've got a bunch, not sure about it being white though.

If you're looking for a specific video, I likely won't have it. If it's just a C4 doing wheelies, I have a ZR1 in a street-trim with 615 motor doing a wheelie for about an 1/8th mile before he scrapes his bumper on the pavement, gets out of it and hits the ground (bad).

Let me look.

I don't have a vid of a white C4 but do have one of a black 9+sec C4 that launched beside me with front wheels roof-high.

Though I no longer have the thread (I believe the vid name was "kb1.mpeg"), I do have the vid file stored to HDD and will e-mail it to those interested, just provide your e-mail address.

Here's the link to his car after he quieted it down a little:
