The car is offered in both street and race versions, oh yes!! Just like the Brabham BT62S

A new Supra with this engine would be nice, the BMW engine is also pretty good though.

is the street version, this is the track only car....which is saddening, i think the street 430 did a 7min 6 second lap at the nurb, but that was an un-official time since there was traffic during its test run

Man must be crazy powerful to put up those numbers with two people in the car with a full tank of gas on an unprepared surface which Sportsauto always does. I hope Lotus fave permission for a Nurburgring lap. Hopefully they will publish the time rather than imitating Ron must be first Dennis.

Incredible car but either David Pittard is a really poor driver or this car is a paradoxical British car that can't handle in the rain
Anthony Reide was much faster in the wet with a Vantage V12, Jaguar SVR and Corvette Stingray. Big slower accelerating and more cumbersome cars. A little powerhouse like this should fly up the hill. Amazing Hockenheim time though. Huzzah Huzzah! to our Commonwealth partners on taking the record from the auto giants. The Bricklin will rise again though lmao.

See the link. Power to weight ratio, 517hp/ton. This calculates to a weight of 890kg.

Radikal-like piece of shit

that's ridiculous. of course this car has less load on the front axle, it's a much lighter car. If what your excuse is plausible, then turn in will be a nightmare and it'll be a gigantic understeering maniac.

911s use massive carbon brakes, this car I believe had steels ?


User avatar

DeDe  9y ago

True, but a 911 has wider front tyres and about 200 kgs more load on the front axle ;)

The one in the pic looks different then the one in the video?....Different options? Or race version?


User avatar

911s have small loads on their front axles. That doesn't seem to be a problem


User avatar

DeDe  9y ago

@saxy It's not, the main reason for the relatively bad braking figures is the low load on the front axle (only 351 kilos).

33.5m to brake from 100? That's pretty pathetic for a lightweight $100+k track car
