If you thought that you couldn’t get the fastest road-legal car for less than a cool million dollars, you were wrong. The McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder, and the Ferrari LaFerrari are awesome machines, but Radical’s new EcoBoost V6-powered RXC Turbo 500 really shows them who’s boss out on Anglesey Circuit.

The three hypercars are monumentally fast out on the track for being “road cars,” but the Radical has them beat in terms of affordability and on-track performance, all while being road-legal, and homologated for sale worldwide. The Radical RXC Turbo 500 is built to look and handle like a Le Mans Prototype, but be able to handle day-to-day driving. The chassis is tubular steel with an integrated roll cage, the body work is completely carbon fiber to keep weight down, and the suspension is an inboard setup with adjustable Intrax dampers. Power comes from a 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 from Ford, which sends power to a seven-speed transverse Quaife gearbox with torque-biasing LSD.

EVO‘s Jethro Bovingdon was on a mission to beat the fastest lap time at Anglesey Circuit, which he set in a McLaren P1 at 1:11.2. Although Bovingdon is down roughly 400 hp from the P1, the Radical used its light weight and aerodynamics to keep planted and hold momentum through the turns. Within a few laps, he was hot on the McLaren’s heels, but we won’t ruin the surprise for you. Check out the full video to see if the Radical RXC Turbo 500 has what it takes to embarrass the P1 out on the track!
