Radical SR8 430Bhp + Carbon

F1 Authentics 4

Description:

Radical SR8
2.8L, 430bhp+
Chassis SR800063
No expense spared on complete rebuilds by UKs top Radical race teams.  Engine and gearbox fully rebuilt in 2022/2023 and many receipts to prove.  Car has not completed a lap at full race speed since rebuilds.

Most recently prepped for 2024 season by North Motorsport.

This car was bought to be built up to a high standard and raced in 2022.  Unfortunately due to extensive delays in the build which doubled the original budget, the car was not ready to race and the season was lost.  After deciding to try again for 2024 with more expensive upgrades (ECU, dash, gearshift control) a software configuration issue (now fixed) made for an aborted qualifying and the car parked up (due to a broken wrist and time constraints).  As I'm not going to get to play with it this year it has to go.

Engine - complete rebuild by RLM. Higher compression JE 84mm pistons, heads gas-flowed, crank rod and piston assembly balanced.  Fully remapped for new pistons/heads and run-in on RLM dyno.  All RLM build/upgrade recommendations taken.
Gearbox - complete rebuild by RJ motorsport and initial issues corrected by North Motorsport.  Full build inc crownwheel & pinion, bearings, bearing cage, ratios, dogs etc.

Since the builds the car has been started and warmed at idle many times but a number of small niggles meant it never got a race or even track/test day under proper load.
 
Bodywork - new exclusive £3K wrap.  Under the wrap lies a carbon tub and rear section (very expensive and rare options).  Sponsor graphics are on top of wrap and can be (carefully!) removed.

Rebuild work for 22/23:
All corners stripped/checked and dampers dyno-tested, tweaked.
Full setup by race team.
Straight-through pipes currently fitted to replace side silencers (magical V8 sound if your track allows), car supplied with side silencers also for noise-restricted needs.
Radiators inspected, pressure tested and leak repaired in left, right radiator re-cored.
Oil coolers flushed and pressure tested.
Side pods removed and repaired where required.
Side skirts removed and repainted.
New Skids.
New front floor side plates.
New water pump plugs.
Cooling fan added.

For 23/24:

Radical HANS seatbelts dated to end 2024.
New LHS driveshaft.
Driveshaft boots stripped and repacked
Brand new (2024) Life ECU.
Complete new engine wiring loom (for new ECU/dash).
Closed-loop Life gearshift control (enabled by new ECU) in order to give modern gearshift and protect box.
Brand new AiM Dash (colour LED screen, CAN integrated to ECU).
Chassis inspection and small repair made.
Full race-prep by North Motorsport, car has done less than 10minutes track time since full prep.

Car supplied with wheels/avon slicks as shown in photos.  Also supplied with 2nd set of wheels with dunlop wets.  
Car supplied with fuel dump churn (with vent valve), extra dive planes.


I have invested over £60K into this car since 2022 (I don't want to calculate the actual amount!)

Also have a number of other spares, inc extensive gearbox spares wheels/tyres/body parts available with the car by separate negotiation or after sale.

Brian James RS3 trailer also for sale with or once the car goes.  Solar panel, electric remote winch, new tyres, new jockey, new brake cables, custom tyre/tool rack inside.
