Yeah...not a production car. Sure, you could buy one...but Id like to see this one go through some crash tests, emissions testing, etc etc....
ZR1 is the King. Suck it. |
Uhh, you see that thing on the front of that car, yeah its a lisence plate, this car is street legal in europe and so forth. It doesnt meet U.S. emission standards, but then again, the Caparo isnt either, but that is a street legal car too. The Radical is a production car. where does it say in any rule book there has to be a certain amount made before it is considered a production car, so you suck it. When the FIA announced back in the late 90's that the GT1 class cars had to have at least 1 production street legal car, Toyota GT1 ( TS020), Nissan R390 GT1, Lotus GT1, and Panoz GTR-1 made 1 production car, as far as im concerned, those cars were a production and street legal cars, but more realistically I think at least 2 should be made so its not a 1- off car, and Radical has made 23 more examples of the car then required for me to be considered a street legal production car. The Radical uses 2 hayabusa engines mated together making a 2.6 litre V8. The car doesnt go 205mph like the ZR1, but the son of a bitch can sure handle, and look at the times. When they timed it, it was using street legal tires and such to comply with street legal car class times. Id take that car anyday over the highly overrated ZR1 IMO.
