Peterborough (UK), Wednesday 22nd March 2023; Radical Motorsport – the UK’s largest race car manufacturer – is pleased to announce the appointment of Graham Rahal Performance as its new official dealer in Indianapolis, USA.
Owned by NTT INDYCAR Series driver Graham Rahal, Radical USA Indianapolis will operate out of Graham Rahal Performance, in their state-of-the-art facility in Brownsburg, on the outskirts of Indianapolis. First opened in 2017 on the foundations of Graham Rahal’s passion and love for vehicles of all kinds, their state-of-the-art facility now offers a variety of services for any vehicle across Indiana and Ohio. The appointment of GRP as Radical USA Indianapolis builds on the last few years of success and is a well-deserved addition to the strong North American Radical market.
Radical USA Indianapolis will provide an elevated experience for customers of the Radical racing program, motorsport enthusiasts wanting to take the next step in their racing career or those wanting to indulge in their track day hobby. In conjunction with both Graham Rahal Performance and Rahal Paint Protection, Radical USA Indianapolis is now available for prospective and current Radical owners for spare parts, transport, maintenance, wrapping, performance, and sales enquiries across both Ohio and Indiana.
GRP owner Graham Rahal said: “Radical is a highly regarded global motorsport brand, and through our partnership, Radical Indianapolis will be able to provide customers with the best performance for their dollar. Through each stage of our services, the highly skilled team at Radical Indianapolis and Graham Rahal Performance will ensure the racecars are at peak performance when taken to the track, and that the customers have an elevated experience during their time with us. We are excited to add this venture to our growing portfolio.”
With the launch of the latest updates to their most popular models, the SR3 XXR and SR10 XXR, Radical has quickly become the race car of choice for motorsport and car club members wanting faster, more competitive cars. Since it’s inception, Radical Motorsport has sold close to 3,000 cars, with roughly two-thirds of cars being exported to North America.
The appointment of Radical Indianapolis complements the existing Radical dealer network, and is their tenth dealer in North America. The last few years have also seen the Blue Marble Radical Cup North America race series gain popularity, as this season, it supports four IndyCar rounds, including one on the streets of Toronto. The wider, global Radical dealer network includes over 30 dealers serving over 20 countries – all the way from Canada and the US to Europe, the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand.
Radical Motorsport Business Development Manager Jeff Barrow commented on the appointment, “I have worked with Graham Rahal since his early days in Formula Atlantic, and I’ve watched both Graham and his brands grow to become a staple in motorsports in North America. With GRP being based in Indianapolis, the centre of speed, and Graham’s strong family heritage in Ohio, it made perfect sense to bring his group into the Radical family of dealers. We look forward to working with him and his wider team to solidify Radical as the brand of choice for motor enthusiasts across the States.”
Radical Indianapolis is the latest in a series of new Radical dealer appointments across the globe, with other recent appointments including Germany North, Germany South and Spain.

A 33-strong global dealer network spanning 21 countries underpins this growth, and there are now 12 single-make Radical Cup championships across four different continents, including the factory-supported Hagerty Radical Cup UK and the Blue Marble Radical Cup North America.
Radical Motorsport is one of the world’s most prolific sports car manufacturers, with over 2,800 cars produced in the past 25 years. From its 1997 inception, Radical set out to create a customer-lead niche in the world of motorsport, a race-bred thrill-a-minute driving experience on the racetrack and road.
A combination of lightweight construction, superbike-derived technology and aerodynamic downforce delivers models faster than a supercar, totally driver-focused and rewarding to drive. Entering its third decade, the Radical stable includes the entry-level SR1, the best-selling SR3, turbo-charged SR10, and iconic RXC available in GT3 and Spyder variants. The turbocharged SR10 was launched in early 2021 and headlines Radical’s SR product range with over 425 bhp and 380 lb-ft of torque for blistering performance. All models from the renowned racing car manufacturer are solely designed, engineered and built at Radical’s Cambridgeshire headquarters, by 70 of the company’s 130-strong staff.
Radical was the first manufacturer to bring long-format, double-header endurance racing to competitive motorsport while providing comprehensive spares and technical support. The marque’s official single-make championships offer the ultimate driving experience and progressive racing ladder for prototype-style sports car racing for drivers of all abilities, while Radical’s ‘Race the World’ mission offers an end-to-end racing, training and support network across the globe.
