Radical SR8 6min 55 sec Ring lap
 

Borrowed from Chris on Scoobycity.

Video - British made roadlegal (in UK) Radical SR8 smashes the nurburgring record for production cars by more than 20 sec, running the lap in 6:55! The previous record was held by Donkervoort (evo 082). The £60,000 Radical SR8 is in reality a road-l

fcuk hell its a bit quick:eek2:

I wonder what excuse the Germans will have for not accepting this time, since they never accepted the last attempt.

It looked as though he could have gone even faster!
Not bad at all though for 7mins!

Doesn't that work out at an average speed of something rediculous like 120mph?? Nutter! Anybody know who the driver was?

Or not :thumb:

summat like that, I know a lad that worked briefly at radical, this phil did the SR3 turbo lap apparently.

but not this one! :D

It's "not a road car" is the term they use. OK it's road legal in the UK, but it'd never get TUV approval in Germany.

Lets be honest, this is a race car that has been made road legal.....it's a long way from what most people would call a road car. Most road cars I know come with at least a fan to blow air out, and a hole for a stereo.

...there should almost be a separate record for cars like this.
