I don’t know about you guys but I am extremely excited to see footage of the McLaren W1 performing on a track. Just by the numbers this car seems to be absolutely crazy.

It’s a RWD car with a 5.7s 0-200kph (130mph), faster than a Plaid, even though it’s 0-60mph is “only” 2.7s.

The acceleration this thing will pick up once it gets traction will be insane. I can’t imagine how it will do around a track while weighing 1400kg and with 1000kg of downforce.

Yes I know, it’s a few million and none of us will drive it, but I’m so glad McLaren is pushing the limits of RWD cars and matching the new Ferrari F80s AWD performance.
