Good! The top line is that it was about half a second a lap quicker than the Clubsport last year. The tyres are more durable and a harder compound, which will probably slow the clubsports down. Through the fast kink, it was the only thing that was flat (even the Prosports and SR3s were needing a slight lift).
As Guadix is mainly slow speed corners and it mullered the Clubsport pace through the fast corners, I expect it to be significantly quicker on a 'proper' circuit, and the tyres should last a few races.
More naturally understeery than the Clubsport, and rewards a more conventional driving style (i.e. Not so sideways through the slow corners).
I like!

There were about 8 Radicals there altogether, but only a handful (if that) running on any one day. What did the folks in Estoril think of the SR4 - did they get any dry running? I actually managed about a day and a half of dry running (which was fortunate as we didn't have any wets for it!).
Factory has just phoned me, leaving now to deliver the SR4 to me, should have it by 3pm today (about time!).Andrew,the radical trackdays are 2nd march (tues) at brands and 9th march at snetterton, can"t make either unfortunatly unless something changes. Hoping to get out at bruntingthorpe this sunday if the weather holds off!!
Yes, it arrived minus- 1)spare rims and wets 2)seat insert 3)roll over bar fairing, wing mirrors were hanging off, no reverse gear,in need of polishing, all typical of course, having said all that she looks a million dollars (now i have applied polish)
Hoping to go to bruntingthorpe tomorrow to shake it down / run - in etc.
