Race-engined road cars have existed for as long as racing has, with homologation specials and competition-derived models quite literally flying out of showrooms. But which have been the very best race-engined road cars? It’s a tough call, but one that luckily our team has plenty of expertise in…
Through much deliberation, we have narrowed it down to a mere handful. First, there is the Hemi-powered Plymouth Belvedere, then the Alfa Romeo Montreal’s 2.5-litre mechanically-injected, dry-sumped V8, derived from the Tipo 33 Sports Prototype.
