600lbs lighter, extensive aero mods, supposedly being built for one of the FIA GT classes. ~25 street versions. Same HP as the “normal” street car.

Aparently with McLaren’s test driver it did a “slow” 7:38 due to transmission and cooling issues. _shrug_ Will be interesting to see how this develops.

how does a track car overheat on the track? especially at that price?
