Chris Harris vs McLaren 765LT - outrageous 750bhp track special tops 200mph! | Top Gear

Expensive, intense and shockingly fast: the McLaren 765LT is no friendly supercar. Chris Harris is kept on his toes by this 750bhp track special with monster racing pedigree that's capable of speeds over 200mph. Definitely too fast for the road - but is it a fair contest when up against the Aston Martin V8 Vantage F1 Edition and the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm in a Top Gear drag race?

[@UrbanBDKNY]

I said before the 765LT came out that it might be the most important car McLaren has released since the original McLaren F1 and the P1 This car will only go up in importance and value over time when people realize how special it truly is. The Senna will probably lose some of its importance to this car Cars no longer let you feel that raw “you are in control and on the edge” of crashing if you don’t manage it right feel this car still has It’s a hyper car for the price of a super car You don’t need to spec this at 400 grand like the one he drove. Brook from Dragtimes has a very low spec 765LT and still destroys

[@09aadarshify]

what about the p1? which used hybrid on a performance car

[@UrbanBDKNY]

@@09aadarshify Whoa you are right. Completely missed me for some odd reason 1) F1 2) P1 3) 765LT I think. The top less car. I forget the name might also pass Senna in importance

This is just another track version of a supercar McLaren makes. What makes this one special in the future? The P1 was the 1st hybrid hypercar, the Senna was the 1st of its kind track focused from McLaren, the 765LT blends in more in the long run.

That 765 is one of the only things that comes close to the sf90.... And on some conditions... Even beat it !!!!

[@tjk9263]

And the SF90 will cost you about $150,000-$200,000 more than the 765LT which dare I say it is a bargain. The fact that McLaren 765LT can hit 9 second qtr. miles without any mods is insane.
