SR8

OVERVIEW

The SR8 is a truly exhilarating drive, powered by a bespoke Radical V8 engine with physics-defying grip, relentless acceleration and powerful brakes.

Brand new in 2017, the Generation 3 SR8 has had a major redesign. The new LMP inspired front end with new front splits and diffusers has a stunning look and a higher revving engine gives even greater performance.

It has 14 years of track development behind it which all adds up to a car that can lap Silverstone GP in sub 2 minutes. It nears LMP2 performance and was used by Michael Vergers to set the production car lap record around the fearsome Nürburgring Nordschleife which stood for 12 years.
