Testing the ICONIC V12 Lister Storm GT1 | Brundle: Behind the Wheel, powered by Adrian Flux 

I see this car against tvr speed 12 , marcos LM900 , viper and others in british GT to think while you was working on them I was a young lad now 37. I thought I was lucky seeing it but your the luckiest in the world. I would love to see it again. Cameras wasnt that good back then and I mean would be best thing to here this monster again❤❤ lister come back

Did you work on the Lister Jaguar XJS's ? please let me know, Thanks

Ever seen a 8.0L jag v12 ?

​​@@Kierenstanden-qz7eu ...7.0 litres

@@razor1uk610 no 8.0Litre V12 my friend bored it out him self

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-crI5W0ZT_dE.htmlsi=uS6Drz5ZvFhh-RgC this is best in my opinion. There is a hard to find clip of this a viper and tvr speed 12 racing recorded from track side

We already do have GT1 racing. They're still racing some of the old GT1 cars in numerous competitions today. Do you mean GT1 by FIA ? GT1 by SRO? Unfortunately the only GT1 cars still racing are some of the old ones. That was not the charm of GT1 The charm of GT1 was that every new hypercar would participate in GT1 racing. When Maserati mc12 came out we already knew that there's a hypercar class called GT1 for Maserati to race in. Just wait for club racing to evolve. Private racing is the future of sports car racing. That's where you can actually see modern hypercars racing. Not just the same old mc12 and Porsche GT1s racing again and again.

I meant as a modern racing class in general

@@daren42 I really do believe that private club racing will evolve into something similar. Maybe not at the same level but take what you have. Another good thing about club racing is the absence of BOP It's like going back to the GT1 of the late 90s.

@@daren42 SCD Secret Meet promised a small race this summer. I don't know exactly what they mean by that. We'll wait and see.

@@fyfyi6053 honestly we're just starting the cycle over again. The foundations for modern racing were set by privateers, who eventually became factory backed or outright bought up by a manufacturer. Now we're heading back into the realm of privateers being the top form of racing but make no mistake, the cycle will repeat itself.

Why then wasn't it put in a Le Mans car on it's conception? The first racing installation l recall was in the Broadspeed XJC 🤔

@@chrisb8075 Jaguar didn't go to Le Mans for many years, so it would have been quite difficult for them to race it when it was first designed.

@@chrisb8075 The original V12 was the 4-valve unit in the XJ13, which was intended for Le Mans. When that did not work out due to a rule change, the engine was reworked and put in production cars with a 2-valve head. Then a few years later they started racing it with Broadspeed first, then TWR with the XJS, then TWR with the group C cars etc.

Thankyou!

Glad you enjoyed it

The endless fable by marketeers is that Football and Motorsport have a similar marketing demographic. But… yeah. Nah

@@BrundleBTW Most DTS viewers may act like Premier League fans 🤣 I had an image of Sir John Hall spreading his Sports Empire of the 90s.

There’s a short of it but I’ll post some

@@BrundleBTW cheers

Probably best to a back to back dyno, then ask

Likely because more weight = more strain on the engine so it'll have been detuned for better reliability. GT1 regs were always more strict than Group C regs too. Air restrictors and all that, probably...

You can see the air intakes on the Lister: those are tiny. The engine had to breathe through a restrictor. Group C raced without restrictors.
