Radical RXC: Time For Tea?

Many claim 'racing car for the road' influence; Radical is among the few to live up to it

---

Sex appeal. Not something most Radicals boast, even with the move to road cars with the new RXC. Nope, functional, motorsport-bred and mega fast is Radical's way and a very successful business they've made of it too.

But road cars require a bit of glamour, even if they look like racing cars. So to the age-old trick of putting an attractive lady beside a 'hand' (hello Roger Green, ex of Evo and now Radical marketing man) in a fast car and making both her and the tyres squeal.

As true PHers we're more interested in the car of course. And, thankfully, this video does in fact concentrate more on the RXC coupe at the heart of the promo than said attractive passenger. Squint and you could mistake the RXC for an LMP car, open your eyes and it looks more like one of those Daytona Coupes from across the pond. Either way, it most definitely looks shockingly out of place on a public road but that's the point of this car, even if it is so it can then be re-homologated for racing...

Anyway, we digress. We've seen it on track. Now we've seen it on the road. Next we want a drive. Watch this space...

That looks awesome!!! Wouldn't mind handling those curves!!!

[MiseryStreak]

Jiggling breasts in a Radical, what more is there?

[Rob.043]

I hoped it would be the lass driving.... That would have been better still.

[HYPESTHYPE]

Very creative. Attractive woman + Radical.
Seems to be good enough....

[WingNut]

With all that jiggling we can assume the ride is quite firm

[freshmicropig]

i'll take a pair

[stew-S160]

Giggity!

[cookie1600]

I hope Piston Heads keeps us abreast of developments

Breast joke

[NGK210]

Interesting car. But yawn, what a disappointingly sexist vid - would've been much more interesting if the ScaJo lookalike had jumped into the driver's seat and done the dab of oppo/wheelspin routine herself. Guess the RXC is aimed at the mid-life-crisis market?

[drewbagz]

What's breast yet, with a car like that you are likely to attract similar bombshells to the passenger seat

Not sure that guessing is needed!

[fatbutt]

I'd like one but at 100K its a nope.

[fatboy18]

Now I've got to see that getting over speed bumps!

[jcl]

That's where my money would go. Nice car too.

[Baryonyx]

Very nice. She looks the kind of girl who would hate that sort of car though.

Exactly I reckon she would take all of it!
