How is my McLaren F1 build?

Is the quarter mile time with a rollout or not?

Nurburgring Nordschleife lap time: 8:06.28 at the 20.8-kilometer variant of this track, this time with a more realistic supercar body + some interior work resembling the McLaren F1.

+600kg constant downforce (33% front : 67% rear)
75% braking power (front and rear)

Remember, this was the '90s. Cars didn't feature as much tire and braking technology back then.

Lap starts at 3:21.

MY BEST AND FINAL LAP TIME AT THE NURBURGRING NORDSCHLEIFE with the McLaren F1: 8:01.20 (very comparable to the real-life results of the Bugatti EB110 SS and Lamborghini Diablo GT)

Mclaren F1 GTR.

This car is the most popular car on FastestLaps.com; its even more popular than the AMG ONE.

For those who still thinking about 20.3 seconds to 300KPH

The acceleration testing session was done w/passenger w/6mph tailwinds and propably half fuel tank, Japanese loves doing that! Just think about, how cold air and 3% downhill can make a difference for 600HP/1200KG car?
Japanese logic > minus 0.3 to higher numbers as rollout (compensation)
300-320kph@4.6s
0-300kph@20.6s
0-320kph@25.2s
300-320kph @ 4.6s
VOILA

I miss these cars.
Cars used to be lightweight and fun,even with less HP.
I still drive manual,and I still
Will.
Only thing I really want now a RWD car.I mostly drove FWD

McLaren F1 Jay Leno.

French Sport Auto tested the same F1 that was tested by CarGraphic:
0-100 kph 3.3s
400m 11.1s
1000m 19.6s
100-140 kph 5th gear 3.3s
100-140 kph 6th gear 4.5s
Top speed 371 kph (factory data)
Weight checked 1263 kgs
the car seems slower than when tested the day by CG.
0-100 kph 3.7s
400m 10.8s
1000m 19.0s
100-140 kph 5th gear 3.2s
100-140 kph 6th gear 4.8s

Why the McLaren F1 is a horrible car?

Mister Elon Musk the multimillionaire will tell you more

my dream car has always been the McLaren F1GTR. i have devoted over 10 years to researching the stats of this car. this website is by far the best helper to me.

A question arose: were the McLaren XP5 and F1 different?

The performance figures obtained in tests with the XP5 chassis are much better than those presented by the "normal" F1.

McLaren F1 XP5, Car and Driver, 1994 (Autocar & Motor)
0-60 mph 3.2s
0-100 mph 6.3s
0-120 mph 9.2s
1/4-Mile 11.1s @ 138 mph

McLaren F1, Road & Track, 1997:
0-60 mph 3.4s
0-100 mph 7.7s
0-120 mph 10.5s (+1.3s) 😐
1/4-Mile 11.6s @ 125 mph (-13 mph) 🙃

The difference appears to be because of a much stronger spec (XP5). Would changing from a European to an American version hurt performance that much?

(sorry for my English) 👍

makes me so 💦 its so juicy nest pas?

Mclaren F1 plus the other two UNICORNS from Porsche and Mercedes

Gordon Murray speaks out after 32 years, the McLaren F1 was a big mistake and had tons of faults

0 - 80 kph 2.7 s
0 - 100 kph 3.2 s
0 - 120 kph 4.3 s

This car did 100km/h in first gear with a conventional manual transmission. This means the 80-120 time of 1.6 seconds is quite conservative. Theoretically it could even do 80-120 in 1.1 seconds with the right gear ratio — which would make it on par with a Bugatti Chiron or a Koenigsegg Gemera. But there's a little bit of truth to every conspiracy theory. Being a lighter-than-average 6-liter V12 car (and grand tourer at that) actually means less time to shift; basically the thing has got a racing clutch disguised as a street one. While the average manual takes .5 second, I'd reckon .3 or even .2 second to shift in the F1, judging by magazine and video tests in the past. The real 80-120 time is around 1.3 seconds — just borderline 720S and P1 territory!

Is it FK, LOL!

The McLaren F1 was supposed to hit 85 mph in first gear, but most F1s were geared to hit only 65 (and sometimes even lower than that). The long-gear F1s can hit the same top speed of 243 mph as the (technically-modified) XP5 did.
