Radical Sportscars is a British manufacturer and constructor of racing cars. The company was founded in January 1997 by amateur drivers and engineers Mick Hyde and Phil Abbott, who built open-cockpit sportscars which could be registered for road use and run on a track without modification. Although most of Radical's sportscars are road legal, they also build some purpose-built racing cars, such as the SR9 Le Mans prototype.
Introduced in late 2012, the RXC Coupe arrived to give Radical Sportscars a road-legal car (in some countries) that had a roof to keep the elements out. Additionally, it arrived with optional air conditioning, carpeting, and more goodies to make road travel a little more comfortable. The Radical RXC Turbo 500 was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show 2015. The British closed-roof sportscar is hoping to become the fastest road legal car to lap the Nürburgring, the RXC Turbo 500 is Radical’s fastest, most track-focused car to date.
The RXC Turbo 500 is the culmination of five years’ development to create a road-legal track car unlike any other. The latest engine management and forced induction technology has been utilised to raise the performance bar even higher, with the new model delivering over 530 hp at 6,100 rpm and 481 ft-lb of torque at 5,000 rpm, endowing the car with a power-to-weight ratio of over 462 hp per tonne.
