We"ve not yet fully digested the bonkers stats of the McLaren Senna. Yet here to scramble our brains further is a bonkers, track-only version. Meet the McLaren Senna GTR. "The track-only McLaren Senna GTR will have more power, more grip and more downforce up to 1,000kg than the McLaren Senna and post even faster lap times," says McLaren CEO Mike Flewitt. "The very limited number of customers who secure this car will be buying the closest experience you can get to a race car without actually lining up on a circuit grid." How much more power? It appears McLaren hasn"t actually decided yet. It"ll get the same 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 as the road-legal Senna (itself still a very track-focused car, mind). As standard, it produces 789bhp, or 800PS. McLaren tells us to expect "at least 825PS" from the GTR. Which rather makes us expect it"ll make even more.
