The Radical SR8 LM was produced from 2008 to 2017. This model was an evolution of Radical's high-performance SR8, designed for extreme track use. It was powered by a 2.7L or 2.8L RPE (Radical Performance Engines) V8, producing up to 460 hp, making it one of the fastest non-street-legal track cars available.

The SR8 LM gained attention for setting a Nürburgring Nordschleife lap record for a production-based car in 2009 with a time of 6 minutes and 48 seconds. The SR8 LM’s design focused on aerodynamic efficiency, advanced suspension, and a lightweight chassis, allowing it to deliver remarkable cornering ability and speed on the track. It was a popular choice in competitive time trials and track events, known for its power-to-weight ratio and race-focused engineering.
