T.50s: The Unfair Advantage

this is the ultimate legacy of a real super car

[@harpersneil]

When they revealed the 850kg weight, I had to pause the video to give my brain a chance to process. I know I'll never live to drive one of these, but just knowing that it exists, and that it's the brainchild of a fellow Brit, fills my heart with pride.

[@MrLundefaret]

Gordon is South African?

[@harpersneil]

@@MrLundefaret No he's British. He parents were Scottish immigrants who moved to South Africa; his nationality is British.

[@ba2724]

I did the same thing when I saw the 850kg on screen. Simply phenomenal.

If any car deserves to have Nikki Lauda name its this one. EDIT: What i meant was , its the only car that deserves the name.

[@martyndyson9501]

The cars name is going to be a mouthful though as its got 2 peoples full names and a track, "so what do you drive m8?" " i got a Gordon Murry T50s Niki Louder Mexico!!" Im not too sure girls knickers are dropping for a name like that! You would have to show them a picture, then bang her knickers would be round her ankles quicker than a vickers todger at scout meeting!!

[@jamesshunt5123]

@@martyndyson9501 I sincerely hope you're kidding. If not - get this: Those who are going to pay a small fortune for these cars aren't chimps from the gutter who drive gaudy monster SUV's or pimped up supercars to overcompensate for what they clearly lack. Everything. And if you're kidding - bad joke.

[@PlayFloyd_IN]

Using the name 'Niki Lauda' means a lot. So many thoughts come to my mind when I think of him. One of the greatest racing drivers ever.

[@silentdogfart4892]

Truly beautiful car. And to see Niki's name on it with the blessing of his family is something very special.

What a legendary engineer. First the F1, and now the T.50

Thank you for paying homage to Gordon Murray's South African heritage! 🇿🇦

Hi Katleho, also proud to know that chassis number 1 will carry the "Kyalami" name. So few people actually knows that Gordon is actually South African 🇿🇦🌍 Be safe.

What sucks is that these cars are most likely to be in a garage for decades, unable to run through its gears..

[@SebastianBlix]

Sad but very true. The ONLY people that can afford and will even consider buying one are the exact people that will put it in bubble wrap so their “investment” can appreciate. It’s even marketed squarely at that demographic. Exotic. Rare. Limited. Hand Crafted. Individual Bespoke Nomenclature. Etc. The majority of the time these perfect driver focused machines will spend “driving” will be onto and off of the transporter to and from car shows. But driven in anger in its natural habitat, aka the track? Besides a Cris Harris special, I wouldn’t put any of the money in my pocket on it. Meh, at least Gordon Murray get to make a good few bucks out of the deal. I guess. 😕

[@theaterticket7406]

I am not a car guy, but this car, the career of Mr Gordon Murry, and that T.50 oblige of respect. I will not be able to purchase one of those, but it's fantastic to see someone passionate to make things better and design marvelous machines.

[@Freshiemaster]

I love his ethos behind building a car, the focus on driver engagement and experience above all.

[@simulatedreality4865]

Listen the McLaren F1 after 30 years is still the most unbelievable machine on the road today.... S.N.M

[@stevejhkhfda]

Wow I love how its named after Niki...one of the greatest racers and humans of recent times...he was such a legend

[@newtagwhodis4535]

This is why I love automobiles. Thank you and congratulations, not only for this groundbreaking vehicle, but also upon you and your team’s work forwarding innovation via a stellar example of what pushing the boundaries of what is considered possible or feasible, is all about. I’m very inspired seeing this, as one who seeks to innovate as well. Be well fellow gearheads

[@nigelrichardson6825]

What an absolutely astonishing thing. Never mind the mind-blowing numbers - HorsePower, Weight, Red Line etc etc - I absolutely love the fact that the instant I saw the profile of the car my mind made the connection to the legendary McLaren F1 I'm lucky enough to have a copy of "Driving Ambition" - the hardcover book that covers every detail of the McLaren F1 - and the similarities / carry overs show me that Gordon got it right with the F1, and he's got it right again A stunning piece of design work, and a wonderful piece of engineering. I'm in love.

[@liquidtunes]

Love that there are no ads.

[@bradpittman5075]

I am really glad people like you exist Gordon. I hope that we can continue to be free enough to challenge each other’s designs and creations to keep us pushing the envelope of design and perform each. Thank you. Never quit. Never stop. And if you are a youngling out there who has the passion, follow it. Be wise and tactful but never let the world become small. Advice from a simple man. But one who appreciates wonderful things.

[@criminozs]

None of these 25 cars are gonna be tracked, 100 percent sure of it. All of them will be parked in environment controlled garages.

[@doncornetto]

Yeah I agree, as always they will be bought by old farts or the children of said farts, none of whom even have the aptitude to push that beast.

[@itwoznotme]

@@doncornetto but those farts, do sometimes lend the cars in their collections to other more racing type farts, who do give it a dammed good trashing round a track. lots of example of just that on youtube!

[@ulysse21]

@@itwoznotme Yeah, one can see the good side of the story, and consider that those old farts are some kind of sponsors or ownersn not necessarely drivers, exactly like many teams owners. They own the cars and finance them and find good drivers to push them. Exactly what have been done for centurys with thoroughbread horses

[@doncornetto]

@@ulysse21 I think its always sad when these rich "pilots" claim to be the best driver of an ultra limited car. You don't have 1000s of them constantly pushing lap times. My 2 cents. I sometimes hate that money makes the driver.

Another brilliant design by a true genius and a fantastic tribute to a legend. Sidenote, it was an unexpected and pleasent surprise to hear Dario's voice. I could listen to him read the phone book! Miss seeing him behind the wheel though.

The T.50 looks like elegant and timeless, whilst similar, this T.50s looks like it will take you out back then smash your head in. I mean even the wing mirrors at 10:10 look incredible.
