SM500 Radical

[rubbertoes]

The car is called a Radical SM 500. The owner of Spring Mountain, John Morris, had it custom built for him as the most powerful Radical they have made so far. So they called it SM for Spring Mountain and 500 for the horse power. Although, we’ve found the engine actually makes 520hp. There are not many of these made so it's a really special car!
