Radical RXC Turbo GT3 (GT3)

The Radical RXC Turbo GT3 is a lightweight British GT racer built from the extreme RXC sports car platform and adapted to GT3-style competition. It combines Radical’s track-focused engineering with turbocharged power, a big aero package, and the sort of mechanical grip that makes it feel closer to a prototype than a traditional GT car.

Key Specs (BoP-dependent, typical sim values)

  • Powertrain: 3.5L twin-turbocharged Ford EcoBoost V6, mid-mounted, longitudinal

  • Total Output: ~380 hp (BoP-dependent GT3 trim)

  • Redline: ~7,500–8,000 rpm

  • Transmission: 6-speed sequential

  • Weight: ~1,250 kg minimum

  • Dimensions: ~4,500 mm long × 1,990 mm wide × 1,200 mm tall | Wheelbase ~2,790 mm

  • Tires: GT3 slicks on forged racing wheels

  • Brakes: Ventilated racing discs with multi-piston calipers

  • Layout: Mid-engine, rear-wheel drive

In the Simulator Feel

The RXC Turbo GT3 is a nimble, aggressive GT3 car that stands out for its prototype-like responsiveness and compact footprint. Compared with heavier front-engined GT3 machines, it feels eager to rotate, fast to change direction, and very direct on turn-in. That makes it a blast on technical circuits, but it also means the car rewards precision — if you overcook entry speed or get greedy with throttle, the rear will let you know quickly.

Engine & Sound: The twin-turbo V6 delivers strong mid-range torque and a punchy top end, with the kind of boosted note you expect from a radical track special. It’s not the loudest GT3 on the grid, but it has a purposeful, urgent sound with a clear turbo whoosh under load and a hard-edged mechanical tone as revs climb.

Handling Characteristics:

  • Cornering: Exceptionally sharp front-end response and excellent rotation, especially in slower corners.

  • Traction: Good rear grip, but the car can step out quickly if you’re abrupt on throttle or unsettled over curbs.

  • Braking: Strong stopping power with a stable platform, though trail braking must be clean to avoid rear instability.

  • Top Speed: Respectable rather than dominant; it tends to shine more in balance and corner-exit speed than outright straight-line pace.

Driving Style Tip: Drive it smoothly and keep the chassis settled. It rewards early confidence on corner entry, measured trail braking, and patient throttle application on exit. It’s especially effective on tighter, technical tracks where agility matters more than brute force.

Livery & Aesthetics: The RXC Turbo GT3 has a striking, motorsport-first look — compact, low-slung, and deeply aerodynamic with Radical’s signature sharp bodywork. In sim form, it looks like a serious endurance weapon: squat stance, large splitter and wing, and a cockpit-forward profile that gives it a very purpose-built identity.

For drivers who enjoy GT3 racing but want something a little more exotic and responsive, the Radical RXC Turbo GT3 is a standout choice — a lightweight turbocharged weapon that feels every bit as sharp as it looks.
