Plus the HDD Music Box system, including hard drive with 9.4 GB for audio storage.
You'd have room for all three F&F movie soundtracks and then some.:D

I wonder fi the drivetrain will be somewhat like a Subaru with the front axles coming right out of the tranny.

[grumblecakes]

There is a second shaft coming from the the rear located center diff to the front diff

No. That's what Audi does also, but that's not something you can do when the transmission, center diff, and rear diff are all at the back of the car.

Fascinating. I noticed the offset shaft in one of the other underbody photos, but the exhaust was in the way of the center-shaft, so i didn't see the 2 parallel shafts. I just figured the offset shaft was the driveshaft from the conventional transmission to the conventional rear diff.

Nope

My factory stereo has a dual SD card slots

(the above picture isn't from my car, but that's the setup I'm running).

It's excellent.

Here ya go. The top 50 fastest laps on the nurburgring.

The first 3 on that list are essentially wankery.. calling either of the Radical SR models a "production car" is nonsense.

The carrera GT is something you could drive to dinner in. The Radical has a roll hoop and no roof. The top 3 entries in that list are purpose-built race cars.

7:38 is really, really fast. There is some discussion as to wether the time is legit or not.

The absolute no-asterisks-needed official lap record was set in the 80s in a porsche 956 race car by a guy who had about the biggest brass balls ever named Stefan Bellof. It was like a 6:25 or so.

The new GT-R has heated leather seats, real glass, etc, and if the 7:38 number is real, is only 18% slower than the absolute fastest time ever officially recorded at the track by any vehicle. Pretty incredible.

You can buy them and drive them on the streets.....they are no less a production car than an Enzo is.

[thrash]

they are kit cars that somebody else builds. They are purpose-built race cars that are barely street legal. An enzo has a horn... and air conditioning... and a dealer / service network. so does a 911. If you've seen pics / videos of these things... they're nothing like a 911 (even a GT3 911). Your grandmother would NEVER ride in a radical SR3... not even for 1 block. She probably couldn't even get into it.

[Guest]

I'm fairly familiar w/ the Radical lineup, I've wanted one since I first saw them several years ago. I'd LOVE to get an SR9 or SR8, but an SR3 would be ok as well...

[GarageAlchemist]

so will this one have the onboard tuning standard like the GTR34 did? How did they add all that new crap and still come in really light? Im guessing they used exotic materials thus the high pricetag?
