Gordon Murray S1 is a gorgeous V12 supercar from another era
Saw that post about the Gordon Murray S1 with its screaming 12,100-rpm V12. Gotta call BS on that being usable outside a track. Last week, security shut me down at King’s Cross. I was playing a slightly amplified blues riff and they said I was disturbing commuters. Imagine that V12 wailing at 12k rpm in the same spot? It’d set off every fire alarm within three blocks. Cops would haul it away before the driver even turned the key. Cold coffee in hand, I’ve got more sense than to buy that this thing’s anything but a fancy toy for rich folks who never deal with real-world noise rules.
