Two SR3’s Air-Freighted from England

Radical Delivery DayThe SR3’s are transported by Radical West crew directly to a track event at Buttonwillow raceway on Saturday, August 9, 2003. 
It’s delivery day at Radical West — an exciting time for new SR3 owners Justin LaJoie and Fabian Okonsky. Pictured here is the British Airways cargo area where the vehicles are being picked up by Radical West crew after being released from Customs. The two SR3’s were air freighted from the factory in Peterborough, England. 

The Radical SR3’s are transported on a huge metal palette, and the cars Radicalscome complete with mineral oil, coolant and even gasoline. Basically, they can be rolled off the pallette and are ready to RACE. After a short break-in period for seating in your brakes and running in the engine, your new Radical can be competition ready. 

After a 3 hour drive from Los Angeles Airport, the Radical West transport team arrives at Buttonwillow Raceway and begins unloading the vehicles. There’s no time to waste as the cars are participating in a track event.
