EPIC 644bhp per tonne ‘Spartan’ – Hypercar performance for Supercar money ! | 4K

When an automobile has 430bhp and weights simply 700kg the efficiency is going to be epic. I got to experience the Spartan, a road legal track car made in Australia thanks to me mate Oliver at Le Mans Coupes

The Spartan is powered by a supercharged Honda engine, has a handbook 6 speed transmission, rear wheel drive, exposed weave carbon fiber body, 6 point racing harnesses and no driver help. A dish for fun!

Looks like a blast to drive. I think you did as well as you could for the sound 🙂

Cracking video Pete. You really captured how much of a missile this thing must be. I definitely need one of these in my life.

Good gosh! What a beauty! I’ve owned three Honda motorcars in my life, and none of them sounded as lovely as this Honda-powered rocket. Funnily enough…I REALLY like…the tyres! They have height to them, and they’re not the rubber-band rubbish all the “cool kids” are wearing these days. The less-than-stellar audio bits really ADDED to the raw racecar feeling of engagement you two probably felt on your drive. And…did I see a Petrol Pup video-bomb in the background? LOL! A perfect little video. I had almost as much fun as you did! Mahalo!

Sorry but at that price point there are a LOT of other cars I’d rather have. If you can afford a Spartan you can afford a BAC Mono and I know which one I’d rather have. I’ve got a VERY similar car to the Spartan you should drive, it’s 500kgs, 60’s sports car inspired, mid engined, 500 kgs with ‘only’ 175 bhp. I paid £8500 for it!!!

Power to weight is everything…so hilarious to see a Tesla model Y whatever it was trying to show off to his mates…I left it for dead on the twisties with my £700 citroen c1

What’s the battery size and how long does it take to charge to 80% 🤣

If you don’t have a windscreen, always wear a full face helmet. A stone chip in the face really isn’t a good thing.

Love the car. I’d be happy to accept a bit more weight if it was cheaper with fibreglass body panels.

Have to say that is one amazingly beautiful and quick car. Sound was good but the car has it

What a usable Bonkers!!! in the best possible way car. The first thing that stood out for me was the Registration plate and I think an Atomic Energy Agency plate is apt for a low slung open top sports car with that level of power to weight and soundtrack to match. Brilliant film and I presume that was all filmed under the speed limit after your podcast of earlier it just looked and sounded faster??

I take it you’ve given up on your IAM Masters then Pete? National speed limits seem to flash by when driving open cars like that on don’t they.😉

Wow, what an awesome bit of kit!
Was out on those roads last night, such a good run. Shame I didn’t see you boys, could have given you a run for your money .
Keep up the good work!

Great security system. Just take steering wheel into house. I did that first time I ever drove to England. Parked in hotel car park in Manchester, took steering wheel into hotel bedroom. I had heard so much about car theft in England. This was the 1980s after all.
