Upside down only at 100 mph?? prove it. I bet Top Gear would try it if their budget wasn't slashed.

So tell me. How can an ugly Radical rip-off with no lights be street legal?

Lol, you're such a noob. The article itself states the fact that Reynard has been in the race business for a hell of long time, longer than radical. They STILL build race high end prototypes that actually have a chance of winning at winning in LMP2 or higher classes unlike the Badical.

Uhh, the question was how can this be road-legal. Not whether or not Reynard is better than Radical.

Who cares Kepe ? Reynard is an institution in Le Mans racing and only a fool would call this a knock-off and by doing so disrespecting the great work they've done. The Panoz Esperante GTR-1 was designed by them, the Panoz LMP-07 and 01 were as well, as was the Chrysler LMP. Those are just some examples within the past 10 years or so.

Hmm. Xanavi23, thanks for your kind words, maybe I?m a noob, yes. But you don?t anwser about the front lights, which, actually, was my question. Cause if you use your eyes, instead your ego, you will see, the car doesnt have any front lights. How it could be a street legal?? Or it could be not final version of car.

Again, im not interested in your question. Calling this car a Radical knock-off is foolish and disrespectful to an institution like Reynard. They've done ALOT of work. Its not about ego...its about having knowledge and respect on a great prototype makers work...I don't care what people think of me, but i'll be damned if someone is gonna take away from a damn good companies work. Sorry.

I thought Reynard had prevsiously goen out of business? If I recall, it was stopped the Strathcarron project working out, as Reynard were meant to be building the chassis and couldn't. So is this tthe REAL Reynard or just someone nabbing the name, like those jokers have done with the Brabham moniker...?

I have seen 550hp Turbo Hayas, which means you could achieve 1350hp/tonne, which is CRAZY!
