Radical Motorsport builds its 3,000th carOn its recent 28th anniversary, the Peterborough-based racing car manufacturer Radical Motorsport announced the production of its 3,000th car. An example of Radical’s ‘iconic SR3’, it rolled off the production line ready for delivery to long-term Radical customer and Radical Cup UK racer, John Hewitt; and to mark this special occasion, the vehicle features a ‘unique one-off chassis that is powder-coated in bronze’, along with matching bronze wheels and decals.

Founded in 1997, Radical Motorsport has focused on making high-performance racing accessible to enthusiasts and professionals alike. The company is now represented in over 20 countries by a 30-plus strong dealer-network; it also supports 14 single-make Radical Cup championships around the world.

Dan Redpath, Radical Motorsport’s chief commercial officer, said: “Reaching the 3,000th car milestone is a testament to the dedication and talent of our team. It is a proud moment not only for Radical but also for our customers and fans who have supported us through this incredible journey. Our success demonstrates that by focusing on what we do best — delivering world-class race cars and unrivalled customer experiences — we can thrive even in challenging times.

“Fittingly, this milestone vehicle is being delivered to a UK customer, highlighting Radical’s strong domestic ties and commitment to its local racing community. The date of 28 January marks 28 years exactly since the company was founded, ahead of debuting the first Radical model, the 1100 Clubsport, in April 1997 at Brands Hatch. In just two years, there were enough Radical customers to fill an entire grid, and Radical racing as we know it today began.”
