RXC Spyder V8
The Radical RXC Spyder represents Radical Sportscars' ultimate track-focused sports car featuring either a 3.5-liter V6 or 3.7-liter Ford/Radical V8 engine (V8 variant) producing approximately 440 horsepower at 10,500 rpm, paired with a six-speed Quaife/Radical sequential gearbox with paddle shifters. The RXC features full carbon fiber monocoque chassis construction providing Le Mans Prototype-level safety and rigidity at minimal weight, with open-cockpit Spyder configuration eliminating the roof for reduced weight and increased driver engagement.
Weighing approximately 1,895 pounds (860 kg), the RXC Spyder V8 achieves extraordinary performance: 0-60 mph in approximately 2.6 seconds, 0-100 mph in 5.7 seconds, with top speeds exceeding 175 mph and sustained cornering forces over 3G through sophisticated aerodynamics and ground-effects. The RXC features race-derived suspension with adjustable dampers, carbon-ceramic brakes, center-lock wheels, and comprehensive aerodynamics including adjustable wings and diffusers generating significant downforce. The car meets road-legal homologation in many markets despite near-race-car performance, featuring headlights, taillights, indicators, and compliance with noise regulations. The RXC competes in various racing series globally while offering street legality for ultimate track day performance. The V8 variant provides high-revving naturally aspirated character with F1-like power delivery and soundtrack. The Radical RXC Spyder targets ultra-wealthy track day enthusiasts and collectors seeking authentic prototype sports car experience with genuine LMP-level performance, offering one of the most extreme driving experiences available in street-legal form. The combination of carbon monocoque construction, naturally aspirated V8 power, and sophisticated aerodynamics creates performance rivaling purpose-built race cars while maintaining (limited) road legality and spectacular British sports car engineering.
