The strangest part about the McMurtry Spéirling is that it does not need to be moving fast to have enormous grip. Its twin fans can generate up to 2,000 kg of downforce from 0 mph, effectively sucking the car onto the track before conventional aero has even had a chance to work.
That is the idea that helped the 1,000 bhp Spéirling become the fastest car ever around the Top Gear Test Track, with the Stig setting a 55.9-second lap and beating the 2004 Renault R24 F1 record by 3.1 seconds. It looks tiny, but the engineering behind it is anything but.

Very very impressive. I was at first very much against electric cars and other stuff but it kind of grew on me.

This thing belongs in an own class. Thats not a Car anymore. And how far can it keep the speed? 2 hours? i dont think so.

So hear me out: An F-104 Starfighter that’s even more dangerous but is also on the ground

Boring AF IMHO I’d rather drive a shifter kart around the track than be bored to tears by this 🚀

Impressive, yes. But a 22 year old F1 car was only 3.1 seconds slower, on a damp/wet track. Just shows you how capable those cars were
