McLaren Senna GTR to Make World Track Debut at Goodwood
Latest edition to the McLaren Ultimate Series will land in owners’ garages in September for track day outings to come.
Named after the late Ayrton Senna, the McLaren Senna is already living up to the legendary namesake by being a car built for the track, while still being able to drive from the garage to the affair.
For a select few, though, they’ll have something that tosses street legality out of the window, along with the FIA rulebooks. Come April 6, the McLaren Senna GTR will make its track debut at Goodwood before landing in 75 lucky garages starting in September.
The track-only Senna GTR comes with a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 making 814 horses and 590 lb-ft of torque. The beating heart of this McLaren is placed into a body that only weighs 2,619 pounds dry, bringing a power-to-weight ratio of 694 horses per ton to the track, which is kept in line via 2,205 pounds of downforce and McLaren GT3-derived suspension components. In short, this machine is as hardcore as the legend himself was at his peak.
The newest member of McLaren’s Ultimate Series will lead a parade lap at Goodwood during the 77th Goodwood Members’ Meeting, accompanied by other McLaren greats like the P1 GTR, the road-legal Senna, and the famed XP5 F1, which held the record for the fastest production road car around for several years.
