I LIKE MCLAREN F1

Now lets no forget that the viper is not a carbon fiber car but a steel chassis and fiber glass body much heavier. Plus anything with 500hp can go 200+ with the correct gearing in it. Not only that but like I said lets price them for the price the F1 should go 350mph.

Road car, yes. Race car I would have to say is the Porsche 956/962. ;D

226 vs the mclaren's 243! the N/a version still loses by a long shot! And it wasn't number one at its time in the first place

I 'll second that !

lol! some of you guys make me smile sooo much, "The (fill in your own No1 super car) costs 53.56% less for 34.6% more BHP and as for the straight line speed.....LOL!!!" If you don`t get that the Mc laren F1 was the daddy till the veyron turned up then i`m amazed. A supercar is about making you feel super! Something that cost less but is close is 2nd best. if you buy a viper the trouble is.....you own a viper not an F1.Look at the age of this car and look at what was around at the time.. end off.

why do you say its N/A ? its a 6.0 liters 627 bhp atmosferic bmw engine... there are no secrets about it...

americans always wanting some recognition for something worse

i mean it needs twice the power to go 30mph slower. That is NOT good

Yes because first it's Amwerican made, second the Lingenfelter viper is only around 175K what does the thing cost?

Edit:1994 mclaren : naturally espirated

that`s twice the HP of the mclaren and 20/30 mph slower, is that good?

McLaren F1 is really the best car ever!

It's called Ehra-Lessien - VW owned test track. Info from Wiki... There is a high speed circuit with an unbroken straight of 9 km in length, on which the top speed of several of the cars developed may be determined. Though this portion of the track is absolutely flat and level, when standing at one end of the straight, the other end cannot be seen due to the curvature of the Earth.

hey you forgot about the saleen s7 it has 550 hp and will do 226mph naturally aspirated there is also a tt version with 750hp 252mph

i was almost holding my breathe. and to think this is more than twice i can push my car and i get jitters in my palm and legs after 150.....but thats coz im on public roads. Hehe! McLaren rocks!

he also said 399?

Thats only 240mph which is just 20/30 mph faster that than the lingenfelter viper which cost a 1/3rd of this car. Don't get me wrong here this car is BAD ASS. I'm just pointing out we in AMERICA build very very fast cars just not a production line. But the lingenfelter viper can be ordered and shipped to your door with 1250 RWHP on pumps gas and can be driven to work every day.

"391 is quite fast isn't it?" omfg HAHAHAHAHAHA ¬¬'

I think the track is called Ehra-lessien. Just search on google earth. 9km straights.

Yeah, very funny...

very notable thing about the mclaren : It is the only historic fastest production car with an N/A engine since 1970! 2007 ssc aero : twin turbo 2005 bugatti veyron : quad turbo 2005 koenigsegg : supercharged 1994 mclaren : N/a 1993 jaguar xj220 : twin turbo 1992 bugatti eb110 : quad turbo 1987 ruf ctr : twin turbo 1987 ferrari f40 : twin turbo 1986 porsche 959: twin turbo 1984 ferrari gto : twin turbo last N/a record holder is lambo miura in 1970!

never be beaten... i think he might be right... oh wait... never mind

lol it be funny "390...391" *CRASH* haah

this or the clk gtr? anywayz why are some people comparing this to the 1960's gt40? of course there are cars that can beat this, but road cras? not a whole lot, name me 3 actually you know of? if were talking gt40, compare that to the group c monsers, like the sauber c9, r91, 787b and all that. these oil cheyks are some lucky bastards driving these sort or cars.
