Incredibly underrated in today's supercar media where is all about numbers. Closer to what Gordon Murray does than anybody esle. And both Murray and Dallara are automotive legends.

[@mufflejoy]

Exactly - 3-400 hp and sub 1 ton is the sweet spot. Old school Lotus, GMA, ...

[@aviator-kn8zq]

What a pure toy. The car actually can be customised to have a T frame to be a Targa or a coupe with doors in a seagull wing style. Also that windshield is removable. Check their site

[@src248]

It looks GOOD with the roof and no wing

[@jsilva7005]

Can you elaborate on what a targa and t-frame are?

Dallara makes chassis for indy and f1 etc.. Amazing chassis designers.. Would have loved a high revving NA engine..

@Glenda Vasquez ok for the japan girls but i'm still looking or the 720(s). i hoped to see the girl washing the car

This car has a strange Ferrari 458, TVR Tuscan front feel (lights and curviness for the latter) with a Porsche 918 Spyder rear IMO.

[@ramonetylar5212]

And a bit McLaren senna

[@shaz3r786]

it was designed in granstudio by the same guy that designed the 458.

First track toy car that actually looks good, unlike most "track toys" it looks proportionate and the front and back look great imo.

[@chrisalvarez7768]

Even though this only has 395bhp that's fine! It's so tiny, fast, and amazing! I love this car

[@staysikth]

That rear end looks beautiful.

[@LucasW.B]

But seriously though, Where is Chris Harris?

[@LarsAgerbk]

RWD, mid-engined, manual gearbox, lightweight, no electronic driver-aids. Everything about this car is perfect. Only thing it's lacking is a naturally aspirated engine. No turbo lag please.

[@weallfollowmanutd]

They actually did their best. To produce 400bhp with a NA, a much bigger engine would be needed and something like a really good 4 litre V8 would work, except the weight would be much higher. Not only that, the weight distribution of the car would be a mess. As the guy said, the lag isn't bad at all.

[@justins.1283]

Drop an all aluminum LS Chevy V-8 in that with about 475hp and you'd really have a screamer!

[@behindthen0thing]

@Shock ok

[@HerreDePerre]

And make the car heavier and destroy weight balance.

[@ssplurged735]

Yawn

[@mw2incorporated]

Who doesn't know Dallara isn't a true car guy

[@arvindmoirangthem8829]

Will be a joy to drive on the freeway. Wind in the hair ☺️☺️☺️

[@FW25]

This guy comes across as so much more genuine and down to earth on the camera than the others within top gear. He should definitely be hosting with Harris and Reid

[@cnfusd]

we need more of this in the world

[@sheelapawar2149]

This car shows that you don't need something always very extra to make the car fulfilled. You just need the right aero with the right power to weight to make a satisfactory track machine. You look at it and it is such a clean and focused car and no bit extra.

[@SamrayGTR]

Oh my... beautiful!

[@delbroox]

It's amazing the length to which people go to write the 'it looks like this and that' or 'it has something of this and that' bullshit. HEY GUYS! It has 2 headlights!!! It looks like a CAR!!!!111

[@ThaAidry]

It is not called Stradale (road) because it is made for the racetrack... It is supposed to be good on curvy roads like you have in the Alps.

[@borninjapan231]

I didn't know that having no doors is something I wanted

[@Infigo96]

I like the way it sounds. No farting while shifting, just a pure paus of anticipation and then on it again. I would like one with seagull doors but without a the wing. Doors like the 919 would be cool as well

Dallara Stradale - Bro can I copy your homework. Mclaren Senna - Yeah bro but dont copy it word for word.

[@OperationMindPhuk]

why cant they just make him the main top gear presenter? not cheesy, talks sense and isn't annoying to listen to.

[@AliasHSW]

His presentation/diction has a Chris Harris vibe. And that’s a good thing!

[@HEKTIC458]

I love it! Would be wild to drive on a tight road/track

[@ldmcnutt]

How can you criticize a track car for having a single clutch sequential transmission? That is the standard for race cars. You would turn slower laps with an H gate manual and it would add unnecessary weight to go with a dual clutch. Just drive it like an H gate manual and let off the throttle when you shift and it will be just fine!

[@AxelEspxnur]

what circuit is it?

[@AxelEspxnur]

@Jonathan Sheeran Thx m8

[@lmc333]

That circuit looks awesome, reminds me of Autumn Track in Gran Turismo !! LOL I so want this car now, but would totally make a louder exhaust...

To get in the car there should be (if I'm not mistaken) sort of a gap in the padding of the seat in the middle of where your legs would be when you sit with "put your foot here" or something like that written on it

[@rickchardet01]

Have racecar on track but don't go past 2k rpm... What's the point?

Is this host still in the top gear training mode? He doing laps like it’s to a grocery store.

[@redraya4263]

He did bad on his homework. the power to weight ratio is over 460HP not over 640HP.

[@nemesis4785]

My first thought. (1000 / 855 )*395 = 462. He said the power to weight ratio is 640 hp without stating the denominator.

[@basstard13]

@@nemesis4785 the guy here is using almost all metric units so I'd assume he's implying a HP/ton ratio.

[@ICKY427]

nice to hear you can get a proper manual box. i also love that they didnt give it a million horsepower, its a car you can actually push without being on the edge of dying at all times. i think id still rather have a nice v6 swapped miata though, it wouldnt be as fast, but it would be usable as a street car and stupid fun. if i wanted a track only car id get a really loud wild track car.

[@methylators]

Can someone compare this to the Aston-Martin Vulcan for me? The Vulcan was previously my "favorite" car, but this may be a contender.

[@culloutoltec9111]

this car was intended primarily for track use and then you put this guy on to review it, but who clearly doesn't know how to drive it on track as it should be driven and talk at the same time.....next time use your DRIVER....you've only got one...here's a clue: CHRIS HARRIS

[@tintertrailers208]

It looks great tbh

[@wingsandwhips4972]

Two things they need to do with the successor to this car, if they sell enough units. Put a naturally aspirated/or supercharged V6 in there to keep the weight down and to improve the sound and driving experience. And put a twin clutch or sequential gear system in this thing. Everything else about this car is perfect!

[@kaisuhina8024]

V6 would be heavier than this turbo i4.

[@allensaunders449]

Most people have said this is a good road car. You can get it with a full roof too

[@offitcock]

800kg and 400bhp would give a power to weight ratio of 500bhp How does a car with more weight and less power than that have a power to weight ratio of 640bhp??

[@BubuSnow93]

How the hell is a ratio measured in bhp? :D

[@nikodechela1]

Because he was talking about the RS3, so he said that it was like an rs3 had 640 hp, in terms of power to weight ratio

[@TheTallAbacus]

It's BHP per Ton. Commonly used metric for performance cars.

[@bawbup7763]

He just said 640 not a ratio

[@TheTallAbacus]

Lassi Kinnunen you're correct sir

[@ethownzbh]

Would've like to see this car being pushed and also some off board audio at full throttle because in another video at it sounded like a jet.

[@SoCalFreelance]

The seating position seems rather rigid. Does the steering wheel and pedals move to fit the driver? How about bolstering? Do any of the panels come off? Would like to see the suspension and frame.

150k for 600+hp/ton, that's actually quite a good deal.

[@dagnut]

expect it has more like 460bhp per ton?? they got those basic maths horribly wrong some how. It weighs 855kg and has 395hp so that is 460bhp per tonne

[@robert23497]

A power to weight ratio is a ratio. Bhp isn't a ratio as far as i know. If it has 400 horsepower and weighs 800 kilograms, the power to weight ratio would be 1 to 2......or 1/2.
