The link is broken so i cannot see the car itself. Is the video of the same radical's pictured below like I rode shotgun in at Spring Mountain Raceway? If they are, then its a 1300cc motorcycle engine with a sequential gearbox. Well... thats what the ones at Spring Mountain had in them.



More photos here: http://www.kalionzes.com/photography/saturday/index.htm


edit: Wait... come to think of it, SR8 probably means its a different motor.

While i've yet to drive a Radical, i've ridden shotgun in one and they are amazing little vehicles. They not only haul ***, their tranny is excellent and shifts incredibly fast and smooth. They also corner so hard you practically start getting tunnel vision from the G's. I've never been in anything that cornered anywhere near a Radical.

The SR8 has a V8, using two hyabusa motors put together.
