Richard Ince Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 After taking many months and multiple attempts my Blue R500 passed its SVA earlier this year. Yesterday my Radical SR3 passed with flying colours at the first attempt. Should be interesting on the road! Expecially as I will now fit the aftermarket rear wing!

TonyR Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 Richard, Excellent. Is this the first fully road legal Radical? I'm sure it will create great interest from Joe Public. TonyR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Ince Posted November 17, 2002 Author Share Posted November 17, 2002 Not the first, three others have passed the SVA. Mine will probably be the first on the road. Will be offering passenger laps at the British Heart day next Sunday at Snetterton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyR Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Richard, Any idea what the minimum age will be for passengers next Sunday. My 13 year old son can't wait to be taken round a circuit but track days are normally 16+. TonyR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain chaos Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 Richard, Have you made it road legal so that it can take part on Sunday? or are you actually intending to drive the Radical on the road? If so, what will you do about ride height? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterg Posted November 18, 2002 Share Posted November 18, 2002 Ok then....when are you going on the Top Gear challenge? 😬 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Ince Posted November 18, 2002 Author Share Posted November 18, 2002 CC I have made it Road legal for a number of reasons. It was on the order form last December! It will enhance the second hand value. I want to see the look on peoples faces! It can be entered in more race championships. The Road legal body work has more ground clearance, I will let you know how long the splitters and side skirts last! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Ince Posted November 18, 2002 Author Share Posted November 18, 2002 Yes, but I will still enter the R500 next year. Not sure if the road tyres are MSA Class 1a/1b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooby dooby doo Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 Hmmm.... a genuine radical in attendence would persuade me to make the trip up again I think... HOOPY 500 kg R706KGU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millsn Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 Seemed like a good question to me? Will you be putting it forward to Top Gear to put the Westfield in its place? Nigel Mills - 2.0 Zetec carbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_ed Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Shame, cos I've heard the Westfield is unbeaten all series, and so it gets another 3minutes of free advertising in the last episode! Excellent move by Westfield! Cheers, Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
