39.08! McMurtry fan car breaks Goodwood Hill RECORD! | Festival of Speed 2022
Goodwood Road & Racing

A short clip of the McMurtry Speirling fan car setting a new Goodwood Hill record of 39.08 seconds at the 2022 Festival of Speed, driven by Max Chilton. It beat the previous timed shootout record set in 1999 and the outright record held by the VW ID.R.
HN points to it as a striking demonstration of fan-downforce EVs, with a run that looks glued to the track and almost sped up.
