Ok I was just wondering has anyone met Gordan Murray?

Also has created any other cars an did he have anything to do with the Slr's creation as well?

He was the lead designer from McLaren on the SLR, although the SLR isn't pure McLaren (pure gordon murray) -- there's lots of Mercedes decisions that went into it, and it's not the result of a single, cohesive vision like the F1 was.

This should give you a nice summary: http://www.autofieldguide.com/articles/080201.html

Thanx

wow he really is good...

& I have come to the coclusion that all the best race car designers are the ones that race them Gordan Murray & Steve Saleen are just to fine examples.
