  • Welcome to what could be our most exciting review EVER!
    Mat’s got his hands on the McMurtry Spéirling, and he’s about to find out if it can back up its claim of being the quickest accelerating road car ever made!
    Now before he even gets behind the wheel, you need to know that the McMurtry comes with a reputation! It's claimed the record as being the fastest car to complete the Goodwood Festival of Speed Hillclimb - beating an F1 car to the title by two whole seconds!
    But what makes this lightning-fast single-seater so special? Well, it comes with an incredible fan system that helps to generate 2,000kg of downforce! This means the McMurtry is not only super quick off the line, but it can take corners at speed with ease.
    In terms of power output, it has two electric motors that produce 1,000hp. Now you may not think that’s too impressive, given EVs such as the Rimac Nevera come with almost 2,000hp. However, whereas the Nevera weighs over 2 tonnes, the McMurtry Spéirling weighs less than one tonne!!
    Now, of course, all that power and performance doesn’t come cheap, costing just under £2,000,000. But if the car can break records as it claims, then it’s got to be worth it, right?
    All we know is, this is one review you don’t want to miss! Will Mat go faster than he’s ever been before? And more importantly, will he break some records?! There’s only one way to find out… Join us for this ultra-in-depth review and see for yourself!

      I'm sure the 7.97 is actually slower than it can go, it's got to be getting most of that time from the front end of the run (1/8th mile) and if the MPH limiter is removed or upped to 200+ it would crush that time. Would it be possible to run again without the limiter?

      You find several videos here on RUclips, just look for "fastest 0-100", I especially love the 5.5 minute Video by Tom Scott. He had the opportunity to feel the acceleration of that car on his own body, his reaction is prizeless!

      Indeed! A bit of perspective:
      7-8 yrs ago, the big 3 hypers getting to 100 in the Fives was truly mental. This car cut that time in half in less than a decade!

    When I saw the run Max did with Speirling at Goodwood I couldn't believe it, looked like a sped up video game, it's surreal what that thing can do not just in straight line but even more so in corners, insane machine 🙆‍♂️ Hats off to McMurtry team for creating this pocket rocket!

      I was there too on the day it broke the record. Just like you, I also thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, it really did look like a sped up video recording. The gasps from the crowd as it flashed by were also very memorable. Had to play it back several times when I got home to let it really sink in. Just incredible.
