This is a very well known radical on the Northern Irish hillclimb and sprint scene, results speak for themselves, overall hillclimb and sprint winning championship car, many outright wins and holder of a lot of outright class records, one of the fastest SR8’s in the country, car always maintained to the highest standard,on the button and ready to start winning again.

Above was the advert for the car an when I seen it I just knew I had to get it. I was going to buy one of them brand new 750cc Casmat, semog or speed car buggys. I’m glad I bought this now.

Since buying the car I have :

Removed all the previous owners stickers/decals of the car an replaced with my own business ones.

Put new 265/605/16 Rear medium compound slicks on the rear 16x 10.5 inch black rims.

Put Dunlop medium compound slicks on the front 15 inch rims. (I will keep the other wheels with the Avon slicks on for sprints)

Yesterday I got Rushe motorsport to fit a new AIM smarty cam GP HD video recorder bullet camera with Data overlay, this will allow me to show my throttle, brake, speed, LapTime, g force and business logo over my videos.

Bought all new seat brackets from Radical to allow my to fit the double seat so I can take passengers.

This car was well known from winning the Northern Ireland sprint an hillclimb championship. It should be pushing over 460bhp an weights around 700kg.

There is a Facebook link of an onboard video of this thing going. Rev limit is set at 10,500 on them. Look how quick it gets to almost 140 mph 🙈. I was supposed to be at the Kirkistown track day today with it an instead I’m sitting here writing about it 😂.
I Will be out at the next track day on Saturday the 28th of November.

These things are amazing, love the sound of the engine, like a baby DFV. The production car lap record run around the Nordschlife with Michael Vergers is one of my favourites.

Jesus Christmas that is amazing.
I 100% could not be trusted to drive that thing, anywhere, at any speed.
Hope you have some success in it, you'll have the craic whether winning or not!
