Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
That doesn't mean you have to like him
Since the F1 he's not been in the manufacturing side, so to say he's not finished things is unfair; he finished his bit for TVR, that they've not built it isn't his failing. He was saying the top speed stuff before the F1 hit the road. There's more to it than "I don't care about top speeds" and I think you'd agree with it. I doubt he'll ever put widened arches on anything though.

It's the clarity of vision that impresses me, although it's clear he has a top team behind him making the whole thing come together.
I don't mind the overbite at all because it clearly has a purpose.

Underbite,
Overbite,

Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
GMA officially don't care about overbite/underbite any more cos they've sold them all.
They've functionally just made over £100m.

Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
they've still got to finish developing it and then actually build them.
TVR have been taking deposits on the new Griff designed by GMA since 2017.
Again, I hope he finishes these.
Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
Good video - I mostly agree with all his comments.
Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
Still not sold on the visuals, but finish looks good.
Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
Needs the eyeliner removed from the lights and a normal car windscreen wiper arm rather than something sourced from a high speed train and it will look much nicer.
How about not having a sig at all?

I guess that central London a cool testing ground for hypercars because 99% of the cars sold will sit on double yellow lines along Sloane Street while the teenage son of a billionaire revs the tits off it, surrounded by YouTubers jizzing themselves.
Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
The front end looks a bit bland compared to the back doesn't it? Kind of derivative of what a lot of supercars look like at the moment.
Does that text on the back really say "fancar"?

Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
As I've said before, surely carbon fibre construction opens up limitless design possibilities for interesting shapes and aerodynamic solutions, yet they seem to have gone with the most dull and easy to make shapes that could have easily been made in metal or fibre glass.
However, all that goes out the the window when compared to that monstrosity of a windscreen wiper!

Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
Shirley the wiper is an interesting shape?
Re: Gordon Murray T50 Live Launch
yeah, he probably forgot to include it in the design, then when it came to adding it, it needed to be huge because it hadn't been incorporated into the aero in any way. Clumsy.
