“We are excited to debut the RB17 to the public for the first time and couldn’t think of a better world stage than Goodwood Festival of Speed. The RB17 exudes rarity and engineering excellence. We’ve channeled everything we know about racing into making the ultimate performance car,” said Christian Horner, CEO of Oracle Red Bull Racing and Red Bull Advanced Technologies.*
The car was on static display, but has claimed top speeds of more than 350 kph. Only 50 RB17s will be produced. Its world debut at the Festival of Speed is said to be the result of a successful and rigorous prototype testing program. Just bring money; a bank vault filled with ~$7 million. The RB17 is a two-seat carbon fiber monocoque design with a semi-stressed mid mounted V10 engine and a carbon fiber gearbox driving the rear wheels.
