About Us:

Radical Motorsport is one of the world's most prolific race car manufacturers, with over 3,000 cars produced in the past 28 years. From its 1997 inception, Radical set out to create a customer-lead niche in the world of motorsport, a race-bred thrill-a-minute driving experience. But the Radical philosophy extends much wider than just the cars. By launching our own race championships, we became the first manufacturer to bring long-format, doubleheader endurance racing to the club racer, and provided a comprehensive spares and technical support team at every event that continues to this day.

We produce up to 200 cars per year at our Peterborough site, exported to a global network of over 30 dealers spanning 25 countries. This is where we see our cars from start to finish before they hit the track - from our team of engineers who design and test new concepts, to the production teams who machine, fabricate, laminate, engine build, sub assemble, bay assemble, and dyno sign off every Radical car produced. Our Sales and Race Series Team operate from our new Donington Park Office.
