McLaren Senna GTR: A $1.4 Million, 814-Plus-HP Track-Bound Ballistic Missile



McLaren has unveiled its latest racetrack weapon, the Senna GTR, which takes the recently unveiled?and already sold out?Senna hypercar to what could be its ultimate extreme. It follows in the footsteps of previous McLaren racers like the Le Mans?winning F1 GTR and the more recent P1 GTR.

At the rear, a c...
