McLaren unveils track-only Senna GTR Concept
09 Mar 2018|2,231 views
McLaren Automotive, the British creator of luxury sports cars and supercars, is to offer a track-only version of the new Ultimate Series McLaren Senna, to be called the McLaren Senna GTR.
Expressions of interest will be taken at the Geneva Show and thereafter, with exact technical details of the McLaren Senna GTR confirmed later this year.
Based around the same carbon fibre Monocage III structure as the McLaren Senna to ensure the core strength and rigidity needed for a top-flight track car, the McLaren Senna GTR will be similar in weight to the 1,198kg lightest dry total of the road-legal McLaren Senna.
With more power and greater torque from the 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine than the 800bhp and 800Nm developed in the road car - horsepower will increase to at least 825bhp - the car will be faster than the 'standard' model in a straight line. The additional benefit of a race-style transmission, revised double wishbone suspension and Pirelli slick tyres - together with up to 1,000kg of downforce - will ensure that the McLaren Senna GTR will also post the quickest McLaren circuit lap times outside Formula One.
The design of the doors benefits aerodynamic efficiency, the outer skin being 'pushed in' as far as possible towards the centre of the car to better channel airflow. Unlike the road-legal McLaren Senna, the McLaren Senna GTR will feature a polycarbonate 'ticket' window.
McLaren Automotive is increasing its focus on providing customers with track-based driving experiences across its full range of cars. A single-make race series has been launched as part of the programme of Pure McLaren track events, allowing McLaren owners with the minimum of an International D-grade licence to take advantage of a full 'arrive and drive' package to race in a 570S GT4 car.
