Radical SR8LM sets new Nürburgring record at 6:48

They've held the Nürburgring Nordschleife lap record since running their SR8 there in 2005, setting a 6:55 lap time that remains well out of reach for anything less, well...radical, including the Dodge Viper ACR's 7:22.1 and the Gumpert Apollo Speed's 7:11.5 from just a few days ago. But never content to let their record stand, Radical headed back to Eiffel to raise the bar even further. Radical is completely street legal. As proof, Michael Vergers drove it down from the factory in England all the way to the vaunted German circuit, and within 24 hours, he had set the new record

Take that Gumpert POS

I couldn't be happier then when a British brand shows the world who makes the best road/track car and I use the term road very loosely.

I doubt we will see this time beaten any time soon.
