Radical Race Car

So what the heck is it, you ask?

The car you’re about to climb into is already competing in the Radical Australia Cup so make no doubt about it, it is a REAL and full blown race car you’re getting into.

Its fast and handles brilliantly … but like most things dont take other peoples word for it … the only way to REALLY appreciate this kind of vehicle is to get Onboard… and take a few hot laps to experience the thrill, excitement and be in awe of its capabilities.

The Radical SR3 is an amazing piece of kit.
