Just watched that this afternoon. 8000 rpm sounds like a wound out multi cylinder sport bike. I can't imagine 12k!
I think I could be happy with either. Who am I trying to kid? Once in I probably wouldn't be able to crawl out again.  Best Les

Wonderful, incredible video. Very well done and the presenter has an engaging demeanor. I wonder where it was filmed. Spain - thanks Zeke!
I have seen the F1 in person and sadly did not appreciate as much as I should have. I won’t make that mistake again. The T.50, on the other hand, I’m completely smitten. I hope it shows up at the Amelia. I would see it if it was the only car. I’m going to watch again with headphones for better audio and then again this weekend through my stereo for my best audio.

Very cool, thank you for sharing.
I like the look of the F1 more but the sound of the T50…

I like the emphasis on experience versus absolute performance.
Someone is going to have a blast driving the T.50 around the Ring.

When I was England last summer, my gracious host Mr. Ahab Jr. arranged a tour of Gordon Murphy Automotive, both the development and hand built manufacturing settings. Obviously I couldn't take pics of either though got to walk around/up to cars being assembled, but we were able to take some pics of finished cars at the end. You would not believe how these cars are made. What a phenomenal trip this was.

Very well done video! Unfortunately I can still only dream of either and still haven’t even seen an F1 in person
