This was very similar to my dad’s one, his was a 98 SVR that had never been raced so converted to a hybrid spec between SVR and SV to get it sold as the race series was scrapped. Shame I was too young to drive it before he sold it. And out of all the cars I’ve been in this one got my heart beating the fastest. Good video, unlucky with the rain

Not a comfortable car, but one that looks and sounds great. Would not be my choice as my only exotic, but a great experience to sample for a day.
