765LT [Official] Mclaren 765LT


Unveiled on 3 March 2020, the 765LT is a limited (765 units worldwide) version of the 720S and the successor to the 675LT as a Super Series Longtail car, focused on track performance. The M840T engine is now rated at 765 PS (563 kW; 755 hp) at 7,500 rpm and 590 lb⋅ft (800 N⋅m) of torque at 5,500 rpm achieved with a higher-capacity fuel pump, forged aluminium pistons and a three-layer head gasket from the Senna.

The original Mclaren 765LT website and initial press shots. One of the greatest Supercars ever and the owners who some own or have owned other marks support this testimony.

It's time to move onto the newer more controversial variant.

Sick car.
 
Btw: Is there some insight, why the 765LT never showed up in the sport auto supertest? Same like the Senna? McLaren doesn't like this format?

You've asked an extremely pertinent question. I've been asking since 2021. There's to my knowledge never been an instrumented test- independent by anyone anywhere.

But there were 1/2 mile events etc and some owners did Dragy runs verified. So we know she's shockingly quick.

I read and agree perhaps she was nearing P1 levels so Mclaren possibly decided to skip it because they knew.

Autocar however did test the Mclaren Senna mind, so it doesn't compute.

Sport auto did test of both Senna and 765LT. Senna did amazing and did laptime record of 1:40,8. For example the next fastest is AMG GT Black series with 1:43,3. 765LT did laptime 1:46,2. Gebhardt declared that the car had problems with putting down power aka too much oversteer out of corners, hence the bad laptime. For comparison 720S with track pack did 1:45,5 laptime.

Apologies your right. I've got and always have had 0-300km/h on the brain. I meant acceleration testing.

As for the 765LT lap now you mentioned Mclaren distanced themselves from it, I believe. Set up etc.
