P1 McLaren P1 GTR

It is also legal in the US under kit car law, i think.

 

[Bucketslash11]

now i want to see a lap from the caparo T1, so far it's still the fastest street legal car on TGTT

What should also be remembered is that Evo have different drivers, ranging from a skilled amateur to a 4 times Indy Car champion. This would probably explain why the Mono clocked 3s quicker than a RXC500 at Anglesey Coastal and 1s slower at Blyton Park Outer with Evo.

The P1 GTR lap was Bovingdon, the Mono lap was Meaden (extensive GT pro racing career).

We can officially debunk the P1 6:4? something time. About 9 secs faster than performante

Street-Legal McLaren P1 LM Shatters Nurburgring Record With 6:43.2 Lap

A Lanzante-modified, street-legal McLaren P1 LM driven by Indy 500 winner Kenny Brack just set a scorching 'Ring lap, deposing the Lamborghini Huracan Performante's record

Nurburging lap records continue to be smashed. The most recent record holder, the Lamborghini Huracan Performante, set a blistering 6:52.01 lap in March, deposing the street-legal record long held by the Porsche 918 Spyder. Now, there's a new king: The McLaren P1 LM, a track-only hypercar made street legal by aftermarket firm Lanzante Motorsport. With Indy 500 winner Kenny Brack behind the wheel, it beat the Performante's lap record by nearly nine seconds.

Of course, caveats apply. Lanzante isn't a car manufacturer in the same vein as Lamborghini, McLaren, or Porsche. The company took the track-only P1 GTR—which McLaren never officially timed at the 'Ring—and modified it to street-legal spec for a select group of buyers in the U.S., Japan, U.K., and the UAE. Previously, the Lanzante-modified P1 LM became the fastest street-legal car to climb the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. With 986 horsepower from a twin-turbo V8 with hybrid assist, it's no surprise the thing is quick.

Lanzante promised to bring the P1 to the 'Ring to set a lap time, and now we've got video of the record-setting lap. It's astonishingly quick, riding on street-legal but custom made Pirelli Trofeo tires of "a specific size and compound." And while it's not quite apples-to-apples to compare an aftermarket-modified hypercar to a factory-stock production vehicle, one thing is for certain: This is one hell of a lap.

Perhaps it's more appropriate to compare the Lanzante-modified McLaren to the NIO EP9, an all-electric supercar that lapped the 'Ring in 6:45.9 (watch the video here). It's street-legal in Europe (but not the U.S.), though with only seven built so far and a price tag of nearly $1.5 million, it's not exactly a "production car." Still, Lanzante's McLaren beat the NIO by more than two seconds.

While Lanzante's effort was not officially backed by McLaren, this isn't the tuner's first time tracking one of the British automaker's vehicles: Lanzante campaigned the "semi-works" McLaren F1 GTR that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1995.

As for the P1 LM's streetability? Lanzante says that, after the lap record was set, the car was driven all the way from the Nurburgring to the company's home in the U.K. Sadly, you probably won't be able to buy one for yourself: Only five examples were built, and they've all been sold already.

And now i'm waiting for Aston Martin Valkyrie

 

[A.P.]

Interesting how a 3rd party released the lap time they did with an P1(LM), yet McLaren themselves didn't release one.

It seems Lamborghini started Ring laptime wars lol.

Now I'm waiting for Pagani to release that Zonda RR 6:30 lap time that they have stickered on one of the Zonda RR's.

 

[TopspeedPT]

So...Nordschleife isn't dangerous anymore for McLaren?

Looking at the time set by the P1 LM, can we use that as a reference to guess how quick the standard P1 is around the ring?

 

[Switar]

The trhead is about P 1 GTR, Nordshleife lap time is about P 1 LM.
The last one is road legal, Gtr is not.
I think it would be better create two thread.

Neither is Jim Glickenhaus.

Not really. There isn't much news about the LM, so there really isn't much need to create a new thread for basically a custom car.

 

[WBarnes]

Not sure if repost. P1 GTR Monza - 1:46 and 200mph.

Not true.
We have everything at our disposal to assess that the P1 LM is a completely different machine than a P1 GTR.

What we know about the P1 GTR:

- It is a track car, however many of them (more than 12 for sure) have been converted for road use by Lanzante Motorsport.
- It has a 3.8 L engine, like the standard P1.
- It has 986 bhp.
- It produces 10% more downforce than the standard P1.
- It is 50 kg lighter than the standard P1.
- It has larger tyres (both in front and at the rear) than the standard P1.

What we know about the P1 LM:

- There are only 5 P1 LM in the world.
- They have been built by Lanzante Motorsport.
- They are all road legal.
- It has a 4.0 L engine, unlike the P1 and the P1 GTR.
- It is more powerful than any other P1 (1000 bhp).
- It produces 40% more downforce than the P1 GTR.
- It is 60 kg lighter than the P1 GTR.
- It has larger tyres than even the P1 GTR.

The P1 LM is the rarest and fastets P1 of all, considerably faster than even the P1 GTR (being the latter in track or road trim, it doesn't matter).


So yes, the P1 LM fully deserves its own thread, since IT IS NOT a P1 GTR.

What I was trying to say was that it wasn't getting much news and that it wasn't unique enough in its own right, to garner a new thread. This is why the GT2RS thread is still labeled as "GT2 winter testing", because it hasn't been completely and officially revealed to deserve it own official thread. The NIO EP9 was completely new along with enough base information from mags and company and unique enough to warrant its own thread.

You could always make one if you wanted to, we're just saying that its so far deep in GTR territory now, and there probably won't be much more news to come from it in the future, that there isn't really much reason to make one as of now.

 

[WBarnes]

There is no GT2 though. Surely that's the real reason.
