Real world 'WipEout'
The first BAC Mono R, featured here, has been finished in this stunning graphic livery inspired by the famous Sony PlayStation anti-gravity racing game ‘WipEout’. The legendary game featured futuristic race ships in challenging ballistic, anti-gravity racing and combat events at breakneck speed.
The visionary game series proved to be an overwhelming global success, with several million units sold across the world. The most recognisable and iconic team to feature across the WipEout series is ‘FEISAR’ (Federal European Industrial Science and Research), which this first-ever BAC Mono R pays homage to.
Finished in the classic FEISAR blue, yellow and white scheme, plus three additional colours feature alongside visible carbon aspects. The intricate masking and painting process took over 10 days to complete, with over 400 complex painted graphics spread across the supercar’s body in line with the FEISAR racing ship’s design.
BAC is known for offering the ultimate scope for customisation, with every supercar that leaves the Liverpool factory being a One of a Kind, one-of-one model. So, when the realisation of a WipEout-inspired dream was tabled by the first Mono R owner in January 2020, the design team relished the challenge. BAC then hosted several meetings with original WipEout game creator and Designer Nick Burcombe, as well as acclaimed modern WipEout Graphic Designer Eddie Wainwright to bring their video-game creation to life with the perfect livery.
