Revolution Racecars Has Launched A 750kg, 350bhp Track Weapon
This 350bhp, 750kg racer is coming to a track near you soon, and not just for occasional track days.
Described by its makers as “an all-new track and race car conceived, designed, developed and built by racers for racers.” It’s the work of Radical Sportscars co-founder Phil Abbott and British designer Simon Cox, who is said to have had free licence to make it look however he wanted.
The astonishing-looking result is the first product of fledgling car maker Revolution Racecars, which built it to compete in “a number of” existing race championships. It brings Le Mans Prototype (LMP) degrees of downforce, construction and safety to a much lower cost base.
Said to be heading for a high-five-figure entry price, it features two seats in a German-made carbonfibre tub, ahead of a 3.7-litre Ford V6 tuned for a balance of power and reliability. Revolution Racecars promises over 6000 miles between rebuilds.
The gearbox is a specialist six-speed sequential item from 3MO. It’s similar to the kit fitted to World Rally Championship cars. The steering wheel is claimed to be roughly like those in Formula 1, with digital readouts and controls accessed via wheel-mounted buttons, dials and switches.

Not gonna lie; not the best looking thing… im not a huge fan of the “futuristic concept” style. Not doubting it’s abilities but it looks like a storm chaser’s rig.
This looks like it came straight put of hot wheels
Ew
Revolution what?
Wait - a Ford V6 with 3.7L of displacement and 350 PS that needs to be rebuilt every 6000 miles ? The 370Z Nismo makes more power and doesn’t need a rebuild until 150’000 km or so… weird.
Looks similar to the Devel Sixteen,
but it has way less power, and it drives
Wipeout 2019 Leaked😂
There is a radical Radical touch in it.
Well, it has some very efficient aerodynamic features. More car makers need to focus on that.
I need a race between this, a radical rx8 or whatever it’s called, ktm crossbow, bac mono, and the Morgan 3 wheeler. (Because topgear, thanks Hammond)
