These things are absolutely majestic, the turning in a radical is amazing...or at least according to the physics in Forza haha
First 'center-stack' panel that I really liked. Easy on the eyes and all business. But that ride...a chiropractor must have a table ready in the pit shop.
dude i totally agree i kept saying ouch over and over watching it

Drivers come out bruised if not fully padded
Justin Martin it’s much more comfortable than what you could image.
Justin Martin if you think this is rough/bumpy watch some racing go kart and super kart vids.
@@charliethefunlovingdogwoof1067 That must be why pro basketball players pay for "fake ass profession" chiropractors to be there for them after the game...
Love the gear selection noise at the beginning!
Skreamies - Yeah, that wasn’t intentional, and sounded like he forgot to engage 1st gear before revving the engine and attempting to pull away. That clattering noise was the dogs on the 1st/2nd dog ring hitting the dogs on 1st gear. Not good, and causing damage that will eventually allow it to jump out of 1st gear.
Pneumatic shifter is as cool as it gets for paddle

I rattled those 100+times..they are big for a reason
i am not pleased by your use of the term "noise", mister skreamies!
No..80s racecar boxes by Hewland are very hard to break..but stuff comes loose when they are hammered for a long time...racecars get rebuild often
Don't know what's more insane - the noise or the levels of grip that things has!
It's great to finally hear a video with a good audio. It makes all the difference!
Unbelievable! I never realised that a Radical is such FAST! Lovely sound by the way!
Oh wow! What a car and what a drive. Incredible grip and a very smooth drive. Proof that weight is the enemy. I was surprised that they were straight on it, out of the pits. Was expecting them to warm the tyres and brakes first.
It's ultra smooth and does it effortlessly. It may look slow but that's the sign of a very quick car. Look at the way he eats up cars and he really isn't forcing the car at all.
I'm really enjoying these onboard videos, keep em coming
Those damn Porsches keep getting in the way 😂
lol
Yup
The R8 had to get past them too but yeah it looked like Radical got held up more.
Moving chicanes!
@@hillarylevenworth8824 Just like this year’s F1 Ferraris. 😂
If I'm honest, the Radical was going at somewhat of a slower pace than i'd have expected...
Agree. The car can go a lot faster with a quicker driver. They are some obvious paces where he was on the wrong line, late on throttle or braking early.
Well there is a simple reason for that, the Audi is driven by a professional, seasoned racing driver, the Radical is a privately owned car that is being driven by it's owner, who is not a professional racing driver
@@morteparla6926 Plus it's powered by a ford V6. Ooops, another mistake
The reason is that this driver is taking corners as if he has no downforce, and he's also not leaving corners in the best gear. It's either his 1st time out with the car or he's driving at 6/10 for some other reason.
@@k.bellingham8335 that means nothing🤷🏾♂️ there's always potentials in every place
The transmission looks so brutal
Thomas Peerse it IS very brutal
Sounds brutal you mean,
Straight cut gears. You get the max possible efficiency from the gearbox, but very noisy.
Hell of a drive! Thanks for the ride!
I love this video thanks for posting I really enjoy it ...I think we all love feeling to feel like we are inside car driving it. It’s amazing. Feeling
The radical is certainly held back by the limits of it’s tire sizes. Owning one, what I wouldn’t do with another inch or two of tire width!
The fucking gear change at 0:53 is one of the best noises I've ever heard a car make. Thank fuck for straight cut gears.
That R8 was pretty fast!
The R8 is a GT3 car- nowhere near road legal so puts the Radicals performance into perspective...
road legal with slicks?
OWL Eagle yes...road legal, with slicks at the track. And?
It´s a huge difference between race slicks and street legal tires. So I think this headline "street legal is chasing GT3) is not correct.
The Radical is designed as a racecar, has much better power/weight ratio
and full slick tires. Still an amazing machine, but not such a big
surprise when its as fast as a GT3.
+OWL Eagle oooo9oooo
Nice ride there. And thank you/your camera person for setting the spot exposure and doing it to expose for the outside view :D
Love this Barely legal action, it's almost criminal. Awesome film NM. Thanks! B.P.
He makes it look so easy. Must be a blast to drive this car.
Just imagine the soundtrack inside that Audi R8!
Loved it deceptive speed, proper trackday weapon.
Thanks for the ride. Very cool.
TY for great camera and sound. not sure who would ever use it on streets lol
The Sound is heaven
The Grahics in these new games are truly astonishing !
Lol!!!
EPIC! Fantastic!
Sounds a proper beast inside! 😋 ATB Peter
I'm impressed someone has an R8 GT3 as a trackday car :P
Either he wasn't on the limit in this thing or the setup is perfect, lovely car regardless.
it is not necessarily private r8. racing teams also doing track days for practising.
OMG SOUNDS SOO GOOD!
A trend setting car when released still love it
That's radical man.
damn that r8 is fast
That was fantastic..!
They sound so good in person
The V8 sounds good in person the v6 turbo is a bit tame tbh.
Amazing sound wow!
Sounds and feels like what it must be like inside my old washing machine on full spin, fucking awesome.
What a “hand”, they make it look like a 70 year old doing a little jaunt round the country lanes...at nucking futs miles an hour. It’s all about the smoothness, Jackie Stewart would be proud.
That is such a Pretty Car !
Drove one on project cars lol
Really good quality content thanks.
try the one in PC2 totally different cars ...
i played PC1 & PC2 and yes its better on PC2 :)
Well, that was exhilarating.
Awesome car. They make this beast in my home city😉
Peterborough! 20 mins away from me!
What a video,what a lovely video!
Bravissimo! Bel tempo davvero.
Awesome Radical RXC Turbo 500 road legal racing car. 😀🏎🏁🏆
Awesome video! Amazing car. I'll take two.
The Audi isn't too bad either.
Would love to see this baby perform on a clear track!
This car is a beast!
Beautiful car and what a thrill it would be to get behind the wheel but like some other comments I genuinely thought it would reel in the Audi quite quickly as I am assuming the power/torque to weight ratio would be better?
The sounds from this thing, reminds me of the first LMP 675’s like the Lola MG. This would probably fit into an LMP4 category now.
the car is about lmp3 pace but i know what you mean👍
Awesome. Like having lmp1 car on the street!
1compaqedr8 more a lmp3... with upgrades close to lmp2 lap times
Utterly Bonkers Daddy true and still awesome!
Not nearly on LMP1 level -> similar to GT3 maybe GTE series (regarding lap times)
Marcel B. Indeed. This would be an excellent platform the increase performance on with more power.
Great stuff, thanks! So frustrating to see that R8 GT3 slip away due to slower traffic. I think the RXC 500 is a bit faster.
West Coast Supercars and Classics it’s 670hp and it’s LOTS faster. That car (with a “gentleman driver”, the owner) did 1:47”6 vs a GT3 pole position of 1:50”...
no man that r8 its a lot faster..
Carlo Leoni Sorry Carlo but you’re wrong. The R8 is for sure 3 to 5 seconds slower. Recent race in Monza gave a pole position to Blancpain GT3 cars at 1:50. This Radical (driven by a gentleman, not a professional driver) has a best at 1:47.6
Utterly Bonkers Daddy mmmm lookin at the race radical didnt even get close to r8..i mean traffic slower em both..but with the free way that r8 flew away..even with a professional driver i dont think that crx could handle that r8..r u sure about the time u wrote???
Carlo Leoni you must have seen a different video. That Radical was reeling him in. That Audi ass got bigger within three laps.
Sorry, that Audi isn’t as fast.
Man, that 2nd gear is tall. It looks like it cost you some time here and there. Looks like a blast though!
Hehe. The little horn. **beep** **beep**
Keeps it "street legal" and saves weight too. 😋
nice! that R8 was amazingly fast
Few things, first the RXC isn't being driven properly but yes the R8 is fast....... the main thing is that isn't the proper RXC, if that was the V8 being driven properly the R8 wouldn't see which way it went. This is a better video, so Ricky the passenger races Superbikes and builds Twin Turbo R8's ironicly. watch his reaction to a proper RXC th-cam.com/video/mgxXA3debWY/w-d-xo.html
wow super,thanks
Great car! Really wanted one..until I saw the R8 infront and it’s what I reeeeally want! It is still capable of beating everything out there in Gt3 if it where not penalised, even after all these years!
Cracking little car.
...and the new title is: "drive after him!!!"
amazing!!!!!
Are those Ford Fiesta mirrors? They look exactly like them!
Arg...the slow climb up to engine revs and speed coming out of the corners. I almost fell asleep. Good thing it has that top end speed to make up for it.
That turbo lag though its holding it back through slow corner exits
In the racing simulation rFactor2 the GT3 version of the car is a blast to drive. Maybe you can check it out.
4:50 Just passing a $350K Porsche 911 RS, Damn That Fast!
Some of that can be driver experience too
GT3 RS is not $350k
Not only isn't it close to 350 thousand but the quality of the drivers might be the only reason this car can pass a gt3rs anyway. The gt2rs is closer to 350 thousand
My Dream Car
very composed car, very impressed in this track to keep with more horsepower cars... it felt like it needed that next 100hp on top but the torque is fine, its a fukin monster , to be honest just amazing that a 500hp is considered low hp these days.... but yep very solid car.
What a cracking little motor, fantastic noise and it managed to embarrass any number of 911's and got within spitting distance of a GT3 race spec Audi r8. If this really is road legal, holy shit!!
Nothing sounds better that turbos & straight cut gear box.
This is not the road legal version of the RXC Turbo 500. It is race spec with slick tyres and the two pipe race exhaust and racing rear lights from the RXC Turbo GT3
Sorry sirs, this IS the road street legal version. You can see it also at top Marques Monaco. I personally know the owner. I’ve been with him... once in you get enchanted... once out you’ll have just one thought: I want one! Also his “personal best” (on slick, obviously, is 1:47.6)
I think @Tripod is right, stock version has the original 7 speed gearbox from Ford which doesn't make this kind of noise.. This one seems to have a 6 speed Xtrac, allthought the max rpm @ 6700 seems correct.
the video does say "road legal" not that it is the road legal version of the radical. can be different things.
Utterly Bonkers Daddy prove it. Post a video of it driving down a busy street............Didn’t think so!
You realize how bad your argument is right? ... Every thing you just mentioned can be purchased extra from radical when they are building your car.
These are hand made to YOUR SPEC they are not mass produced and stored on a lot in an abundance so to say this is NOT a street legal Radical is just silly based on those 3 things you specified you cant drive on the street with slicks how ever that doesn't negate the car being able to be registered and driven on the road with proper tires.
Not sure what "street legal" has to do with it, but smooth driving is always good to watch, and so damn hard to do.
WoW what a monster, both cars. If this was fast the R8 was also amazing fast
Its like the prequel to tron...hahaha..that gear rev sound is awsome , sounds like its gonna slip ...but it doesnt.🤔
Mamma mia ragazzi... emozione della madonna
Superb
Drove it like he stole it!!!👍😁
what a sound
AWESOME AMAZING FANTASTIC SUPERB MARVELOUS MAGIC
wow that thing is fucking awesome holy shit.... but seriously am i the only one that noticed the Mazda 3 interior air vents?
Great car ... wish I had one...
this looks pretty much like the game I played the other day on vr in the mall, I think is the same track
The R8 is pretty slick out of the corners.....
Damn, the rear-view camera really needs to be adjusted to see over/around the back wing. It's literally directly in the middle of the view!
Peterborough’s finest 👍👍
2:25 oh man its getting chilli in there I bet :p
Geez that looks gugged to drive!
When you say chasing did you mean following in a relaxed manner ???
That Radical looked planted and to think it's street legal, wow!
Tbh, we don’t know which is the faster car. But the R8 should have a more suited setup and balance. Every driver input is stored and analyzed to find any room for improving deltas. To make things more robust, every mechanical part of the car is easily accessible, adjustable or serviceable. For instance, a GT3 car can be easily derestricted from its BOP specs, such as opening restrictors, rake heights exceeding regulations or removing the skid blocks (not sure if they have) and these cars will be significantly faster around the track. Those are the things that ‘street legal’ cars fall short - for good and economical reasons.
Crash box in that RXC..nice
I love it when people that buy stuff like this actually race the shit out of it. It doesn’t matter what your skill level is, as long as ur out there man that’s all that matters. Do the things in life that make you happy because you don’t wanna look back when ur 70 and regret not doing shit like this. Even if all you can afford is a beat up Miata, if you wanna go around a track and test yourself and your car then fuck, just do it! Instead of spending $5-10 a day for lunch, start packing one before you go to work. That’s $280ish a month you will have in your pocket so you can afford tires and gas and the cover price for a track day or weekend. Please don’t skip over this comment, this can be applied to anything in life. We only get one shot at this shit so let’s make the most of it
my favorit car in Forza Motorsport 7 😎✌🏻
Eargasm !!!
the rear view mirror itself worths more than my ride
Not bad for a Ford Ecoboost
Out of date ecoboost argument by now
radical must move To vw 2l .easy To get 500 cv. Ford 350 max
@@chris0579 the engine is making over 650bhp in the new rxc models, with long service intervals for a racing engine. i don't like ford very much at all but i have to concede that they've done a good job with this
Radical catches it on the brakes every time but the Audi has got awesome drive out of the corners. Impressive the way it can chase the Audi down,comes down more to race craft than cars limits? On the track there is not a lot between them, reckon Audi would have it in the wet?
its like playing a racing game with the difficulty turned down.
Anyone know what transmission this is? Dogbox? Seq?
How street legal is this car? Is there a special and specific thing that must happen in order for it to be street legal from purchase of the car or is it legal immediately from purchase?
Great car, it sounds like many Sony's Gran Turismo powerup cars
