Holy smoke...gotta love Radical...they're so....well...radical hehe. The thing that really blows my mind is the thought of a Lotus Elise V8...almost makes the Esprit V8 Turbo sound a little redundant hehe...especially when the Radical engine is actually more powerful. Can't wait to see some real numbers on that
