This year's edition of the
This year's edition of the Goodwood Festival of Speed was particularly interesting due to the presence of many of the crazy street-legal supercars/hypercar unveiled in recent years. One of these is for sure the Gordon Murray Automotive T.50. The car has been engineered to be the purest, lightest, most driver-centric supercar ever and it has been created by ex-Formula 1 designer and engineer Gordon Murray, the man who also designed the McLaren F1. With the T.50, Murray celebrates his 50th anniversary of engineering and design.
Designing this car, Gordon Murray aimed to improve his acclaimed McLaren F1 in every conceivable way while maintaining many of the details and features of that iconic supercar. So as the F1, the T.50 has a naturally aspirated V12 engine this time developed by Cosworth (a 3,994 cc V12 called Cosworth GMA) which is able to produce 663 bhp at 11,500 rpm. It's linked to a 6-speed H-pattern manual gearbox. Redline is set at 12,100 rpm. The total weight of the T.50 in running order is just 986 kg. In common with the McLaren F1 is the central driving position, flanked by two passenger seats, reached through gullwing-opening doors.
The thing that most catches the eye is certainly the huge fan positioned at the rear and which of course references to the famous Murray-designed Brabham BT46B "Fan Car" Formula 1 car of the 1970s. Though the basic concepts are similar, the T.50's fan shares little with the BT46B one: electronically controlled and able to spin to 7000 rpm, it can increase downforce by 50 percent in its most aggressive setting, sucking air through ducts in the underfloor diffuser. This function is actually closer to what can be found on the McLaren F1. In fact that supercar had two small fans that acted on a small area of its rear diffuser. The T.50 essentially takes that concept and supersizes it. The fan can also be used to create a fill of air in the trailing wake, generating a sort of virtual long tail, reducing drag by 12.5 percent and increasing lift, which results in better efficiency and a higher top speed. All of this is done without a traditional wing or splitter.
