- After last year's Festival of Speed, the McMurtry Spéirling has definitely made headlines around the world for its incredible record run up the Goodwood hillclimb course in 39.08 seconds, driven by former F1 driver Max Chilton. In 2023 McMurtry was again at the event as one of the entries in the Goodwood's 75th anniversary and 30 years of Festival of Speed celebrations batch, doing some extra demo runs.
So here's a compilation I put together using the footage recorded last year (matte livery and rear licence plate) and that of 2023 about this mini Batmobile, which, even in person, makes you feel like you're watching a sped-up movie.
The idea of this incredible prototype was born in 2016 when the startup McMurtry Automotive was registered by Sir David McMurtry. The motivation behind the Spéirling was to challenge the industry trend of increasingly heavier vehicles and create a lightweight electric drivers car. So a team of former Formula 1 engineers were tasked to design and build the ultimate high performance car from a ‘clean sheet’ design.
The result is a fully-electric, compact vehicle which is based on the fan-generated downforce concept which was first conceived by Jim Hall for the Chaparral 2J Can-Am and then repurposed by Gordon Murray in F1 and, later, in other of his creations. This concept allows the car to have downforce at all speeds as it does not rely on airflow over the car, unlike conventional vehicles.
The system in the McMurtry consists in two fans operated by an independent electric motor capable of turning them at the speeds selected by the driver. At their max rotation speed (23,000 rpm) the twin fans system provides 2,000 kg (4,400 lb) of downforce from standstill. This figure has been possible thanks to a great skirt design which perfectly seals the underbody of the car with the ground.
The Spéirling is moved by two electric motors placed inside a specially designed "e-axle", releasing the power only on the rear wheels. Being an under 1,000 kg vehicle and having a 1,000 bhp/tonne ratio plus the instant downforce, the McMurtry Spéirling is able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 1.5 seconds. It has a track range of 25 minutes when running at GT4 race-car pace, and a road range of over 300 miles (when the road-legal Spéirling Pure will be sold to lucky owners)
In December 2022 in a video review by carwow, it claimed the record for the quickest accelerating road car using independent GPS timing with the following times:
0-60 mph in 1.40s
0-100 mph in 2.63s
0-145mph in 4.98s
¼ mile (400m) in 7.97s
What’s also interesting and tantalising at the same time, is that the car was sat on its 150mph limit for approx. 3 seconds during the ¼ mile run! The car tested was the Goodwood winning record car, in the same configuration as it crossed the finish line there, so a production car record cannot be claimed during this run.
Blink and you'll miss it!

Holy kilowatts Batman, our new bat-mobile is a ripper!
Unreal... warp speed! Cheers, Bozzy!👍🏻 Thanks for doing what you do and have a wonderful day, sir.
Thanks as usual my dear friend! ☺
@@19Bozzy92 😎🤙
Modern chaparral 2j be like :
More like the true heir of the 2J
I get around the corners its fast but it seems way way faster on the straights then anything else with 1000hp it's probably the most impressive car on a whole in goodwood
With that tiny body and dimensions, this is literally an Electric dragster!
@martho8774 I'm just literally amazed by it they came from nowhere and have blown away the competition (pun intended) lool
It goes around corner faster than anythin, i would say. The acceleration on straight is insane too, even its only rear wheel drive. BUT within a quarter mile it runs into its speedlimiter, cause of the gearbox.
@rallyefilmer very true. Its awesome 👌 they need to make a racing series
@@thehomelessproject3784 not reallye, endurance is not the purpose of this car. The battery would not last long, with this horsepower and gaining weight, on that thing is not, what is was built for.
2 years later I still can't get over how short the wheelbase is
This car is crazy. Thanks for another perfext footage, Bozzy!
No problem at all! Thank you for watching
Insane speed❤
Looks unreal, that thing handles like RC Toy Car
That's what you get with 2 tonnes of downforce at whatever speed 😅
That thing is _ridiculous,_ in the very best sense!
Such a vicarious thrill! Thanks to all involved.
Thank you to all involved, a brilliant video of an amazing car!
the speed of this car is crazy its like watching the video on x2 speed
Marvelous, just simply marvelous! Grip it&Rip it!💜
Engineering masterpiece
Bruh wtf, this is real??? 🤯
Sounds like jet engine with that fan setup
Sounds like my laptop
So impressive... it's a rocket on wheels!
The craziest thing about this car, and others like it. Is that fan car technology, from what I understand was banned from F1 for good reasons. The main reason being that if the fan vacuum against the ground was to break seal in a corner. You are basically going to go flying off the track. So it is of course ALWAYS dangerous to drive any hyper car on a track like this. The driver and team with something like this, is actually pushing things just that much further. Both scary and impressive. Hats Off.
im not much for all that RC toys hype, but this one is MENTAL :D .
Awesome!
This car moves like KITT when he was in super pursuit mode 😂. KITT was WAY beyond his time.
Only us old heads can relate. It was like the faster KITT went. The faster that red led bar in the hood 5:24 went left to right.
Awesome description and video as usual. Love!
Thank you!
Le mans next!
This car should be used in the dictionary under the word "whoosh".
Nice footage!
Thanks!
unbelievable...some years that i didnt get such feeling about some car.... drivers seems to never brake.... at the limit, its too fast for brain... driver rocks, bravo ! And such a car !
That’s insane
Modern sucker car ,reminds me of turn 6 at the old Riverside track. Like a rocket on rails.
Immer noch atemberaubend! Wow
They need to take this to every race track in the world and set a record. Just do Mario Kart world records in real life. Don't just do the Nordschleife, do every major track out there.
On the Nordschleife they will be severely limited by their top speed. So no danger for the Porsche 919 Evo.
@@magicmulder And i guess they will soon get heat problems, running on full power.
Unironically a 3D-era Burnout (game) car but irl😤🔥
Track Day Batmobile right there!
It's like the batmobile for mini me
This car is just a physical manifestation of the TH-cam Playback speed set to 2.
Could also think of it as the actual definition of a Speed run.
Much cooler than modern f1
What a monster
I thought the aspect ratio of the screen was messed up😅💦
One heck of a street sweeper.
Great camera work buddy trying to keep up with that thing
Thanks!
This is from another galaxy, f1 is behind now
What an amazing technical masterclass! And a great video of it too, amazing work Bozzy.
I wonder if Scalextric are going to sue them for infringement of an electric car on rails with amazing scale speed. /S
One of the few ev cars I like
Does anyone know how much power the fans that create suction are using?
could you do a 3d binaural video of fxx evo's? especially like you other video of fxx's where you can hear the downshift whine because your behind the car?
JESUS CRIST! That's the fastest car I've ever seen! Maybe this will be a competitor to Bugatti!
McMurty.. I can’t drive it, but would love to. Now see if you can and give us your Joe Rogan Experience
Reminds me of a smaller batmobile.
Can someone confirm if this is not the video playing faster - I still can't absorb this, is this 1x speed? Sorry but I want to be sure if I'm seeing this right.
Driver: Good thing its on autopilot. I cant drive that fast!
😲😲😲😲😲😳😳😳😳😳😳🙌🙌🙌
.
Vorrei tanto vederla in pista contro una F1 questa bestiolina
Arcade real life car
JFC!!!!
closest thing there is, to the Red Bull X2010 from Gran Turismo
I am completely fascinated by the McMurtry Speirling... it sparks my lifelong car obsessed imagination.
A jet on the ground
Is lyke a srt tomahawk in real life
So what is it? Like some sort of jet engine combo or what?
Electric with a DUAL SUCKER FANS to pull it to the ground.
Probably getting 5 - 6 gs in corners
a taste of what f1 could be if they didn't care about safety of drivers XD
2t downforce from 0 km/h
@boost800 this complies to safety standards.
@@Ben-iz9ud maybe if f1 cars looked like this with closed cockpits 😆
The future is quiet and insane
I wonder why hate comments are always at the bottom.
Re-designed Chaparral 2J?
better than that.
Makes an F1 car look slow.
もう色々とおかしいってwwww
i was expecting to hear a glorious V8 but instead we get eeeeeeeeeeeeee
This is what F1 should be in the 21st century, instead of hybrid regulated fence sitting.
No. Take F1 back to naturally aspirated engines with e-fuel. Then develop Formula E towards this.
@@MrJM540 I believe F1 should embrace the anachronism of ic engines, just as baseball uses wooden bats. I would much prefer big na v10s at 19,000 rpm! My point is that the goofball Rube Goldberg "power plants" are propaganda for the non-renewable oil companies, billions $ spent on technology that serves no purpose, instead of a real F1 concept of having unlimited ev development - batteries, motors - which can have actual benefits in the real world.
The only cool electric car
Impressive toy.
Bio fuel combustion engine is the future
a taste of what f1 would be if they didn't care about safety of drivers XD
Thats total bollocks though. Here's an excerpt from the McMurtry Speirling Wiki page:
"It is not currently in a racing series but is built to satisfy relevant motorsport safety requirements, with crash structures and a carbon-fibre monocoque chassis with integral rollover protection."
@@meerkat5818 f1 standards are a lot stricter than general motorsport standards
@@boost800 Not really, they don't use a fully closed cockpit like the McMurtry has
Diese E-Karre kann noch so schnell sein, sie hört sich einfach nur fürchterlich an. Dieses heulende Geräusch löst bei mir sofort einen Brechreiz aus.....🤢🤢🤮🤮
Dann geh kotzen, Rekord ist Rekord !
@@rallyefilmer Keks
looks like a toy xd
I like that when you listen to the crowd remarks, nobody is saying "yeah, but my Golf GTI/Audi S3 is quicker"....everyone is going "Wow!" or similar
i don’t think there’s anyone that would say that…
batman’s clown car
fast and stable, but unfortunately the design looks like a car in a cartoon
Hi guys I'm shmeeeeeeeeeee here's why I'm buying....
It’s cool but it needs an engine not a motor
Obviously doesnt since it would go slower. Get over your EVphobia, its just another car you will never own, or buold your own.
@@kpcart I do build my own cars and I’m at a track right now
@@MattLitkeRacing Your car is slow 😄
@@rallyefilmer I made it myself. What does the car you built do in the quarter mile?
@@MattLitkeRacingdoesn’t matter 😂😂you’re cars still slow
When your girlfriend is home alone...
Ugly design 😂
Too fast with no safety for the crowd!
Ok snowflake
There's always one 😂
Hairdryer on wheels doesn't deserve the title of a car
Salty and jealous. This is a car bruh, and a fucking amazing one at it. 0 to 100mph to 0 in under 6 seconds. Pulls 3g on skidpad. 0 to 60mph in 1.3 seconds. Fastestest ever CAR up goodwood hill climb.
@@kpcart idiots with small brain never will get it, what this sport is about.
why post this electric toy car ? real cars have real engines , not hairdryer motor's . ill never drive EV in my lifetime . only ICE for me.
Why comment here, what nobody interests ? He can post here what he want´s, if he like. Guess bozzy has a brain and realize this is something very special and uniqe.
@@rallyefilmer you dont realize if we dont stop the EV movement , ICE cars will stop ? Hell no im fighting for ICE in the future , synthetic fuel ? Fine . But ill keep my oldtimers . Ive spent my whole life rebuilding , restoring , and driving classic cars , motorcycles etc. Im not gonna give up my lifes work for kids of tomorrow , go and get big corps and cruise ships / private jets / chinas coal powerplants . Im not giving up my hobby , life , dream .
Ojalá pudiera. Comprarme. Uno. De. Estos ..
