McMurtry fan car breaks Goodwood Hill RECORD! | Festival of Speed 2022

Postby Duane 3NE 2NR » June 26th, 2022, 2:13 pm

There's a new Goodwood Hill RECORD. After 23 years Nick Heidfeld's Timed Shootout record in the McLaren MP4/13 has been broken. F1 and IndyCar star Max Chilton's new 39.08 second run in the incredible McMurtry Speirling fan car has knocked over two seconds off that time.



Trini local circuit and kart racer Ronald Wortman is at the event and was able to get up-close to the car

I saw the videos with no context and thought it was a new version of the autonomous electric car. Impressive, but let's see how long the new record stands.

The F1 car was limited during it's run and this fan car was also limited.

A true representation is too difficult as that wall in the middle of the climb is too dangerous.
