Is there a more eagerly awaited new hypercar than the latest creation from the legend behind the McLaren F1? We have seen both road and track versions of the wild T.50 so far and learned a little about its spec. We know it has fan-assisted downforce, a 3.9-litre 663PS (488kW) V12 with a 12,100rpm redline and in this video we get to hear the engine scream, although it is not let entirely off its leash.
Gordon Murray and Senior Test and Development Driver Steve Hayes take to the track at Dunsfold, soon to be home to the company's new campus, for engine testing, taking the V12 up to 5,000rpm. While still well short of what it is capable of, there are hints of a visceral howl beginning to build, whetting our appetites to hear and see the car driven in anger. We have a track here you could use Mr Murray...
