The SR3 Turbo has a 1500cc Hyabusa based 4 cyl engine boosted by a turbo to 320bhp and 213lbs. The kerb weight is a little over 500Kgs which gives it a power to weight ratio of 600bhp per ton
It was fitted with road legal Dunlop Formula R tyres which help generate over 2g on some of the corners.
A limited run of 25 SR3 Turbos is planned costing £48,175.
Does prove that you dont have to have the most powerful car to be the fastest.
