Today I had the pleasure of being driven round a few laps of Brands Hatch in a Palmer Jaguar JP-LM mid-engined two-seater sports prototype and without a shadow of doubt it is the fastest and most mental car I've ever experienced.

I know the Jag bit is only the engine but I hadn't heard of it before. It's powered by a Jaguar Cosworth 3 litre quad cam V6 engine and the JP-LM can reach 0-60mph in less than 3.5 seconds, with a top speed of 167mph.

There's more about it here http://www.palmersport.com/palmerjaguarjp-lm.aspx and enhancements from its JP1 predecessor include faster straight line speed, revised gear ratios and a new body shape to enhance aerodynamic downforce.

The braking, grip and corning speeds were light years ahead of anything else I've experienced and frankly I'm glad I wasn't driving. Anyway thought I'd share a few photos smile
