Hmmm......anyone tempted to P/X?

Any news on the mooted V8 yet?

Holy ZX81 - that's just eye-watering!

Well done, but as a so called roadcar you could hardly drive the Radical to work could you?

Out of interest have they tested the standard Radical at the Ring? I saw a yellow english registerred one at the Ring at the end of May.

One of the kitcar magazines has a feature on the "Extreme" fitted with a proper V8 made from two bike engines. 320bhp in standard form and they reckon 400bhp would be straightforward. £14k for the engine but that would be some nice motor to have in the Radical.

The standard 1500 SR3 recorded a 7min 42.7 around the Nordschleife last year (also driven by Phil Bennett)

BTW - I drive one to work most days!
