Radical Sportscars, Peterborough, England.  Radical have been producing sportscars since the late nineties.  The SR3 was their third model and was built starting in 2002.  It is a two seater open sports racing car built to international racing standards and can race in the FIA C3 class.  Power is provided by a 1.3 litre Susuki 210hp motor-cycle engine.  Top speed is around 155mph and 0-60mph is just a little over 3 seconds so great performance for a car that can even be converted for road use.  There has been a one-make series for these cars.
