The GT500 offers tremendous tuning value. If you can add a few bolt on modifications and run with a McLaren 720S, that is some very big bang for your buck. The GT500 in this video is making roughly ~800 rear wheel horsepower which is hardly pushing the motor. ...Published on 02-12-2020 01:30 PM
This is just below $200k and an international car but still it is incredible to see the McLaren 720S available for under $200k anywhere. Ferrari values hold much better which is easy to understand because of the brand name but why do McLaren values drop so hard? ...Published on 02-07-2020 04:52 PM
Godzilla may be old at this point but he sure can still run. What makes these highway pulls particularly impressive is that the Nissan GT-R is a stock internal VR38DETT example running the smallest turbo upgrade RD Engineering provides for the platform. ...Published on 02-05-2020 08:12 PM
It did not take long at all for the 8.885 @ 159.53 1/4 mile record for the McLaren 720S to fall. The fastest 1/4 mile pass remained 160.54 miles per hour with nitrous but this new result tops that as well and this 720S did it without any juice. ...Published on 02-04-2020 07:01 PM
McLarens are getting very fast on the strip and with all that power launching the factory driveline becomes a concern. DSS (Driveshaft Shop) is well known for their axles and driveline components which can take a beating. ...Published on 02-01-2020 06:11 PM
After they do their Best Driver's Car competition MotorTrend uses the cars again for a big drag race. It is a good way to generate extra content from the same set of cars and this year we have a nice selection for a 12-way race. ...Published on 01-29-2020 05:42 PM
Solid results here from a McLaren 570S with Pure Turbos hardware. The M838T V8 is upgraded with Pure 900 hybrid turbochargers. The car is still being dialed in but said to be making ~830 rear wheel horsepower or so. ...Published on 01-29-2020 04:10 PM
TTE (The Turbo Engineers Germany) tends to name their turbocharger upgrades based on the crank horsepower they are capable of. As you can see, TTE1300 is a hell of a claim if indeed 1300+ crank horsepower is possible with these M840T turbochargers. ...Published on 01-25-2020 02:01 PM
Great ethanol tuning results on this 600LT from Dyno Spectrum. They state this is the first McLaren 600LT M838T tuned on full E85. The gains on the SSR Performance Mustang Dynamometer are practically unbelievable. ...Published on 01-24-2020 09:33 PM
One of the most frustrating parts of motorsports is being able to watch the race in question in the comfort of your own home. 24 Hour events in particular prove difficult to view due to the length. Well, the Daytona 24 Hours kicks off the IMSA calendar and you can say it is the definitive 24 Hour motorsport event in North America. ...Published on 01-24-2020 05:53 PM
There is no surprise here in the outcome here. The McLaren 720S trounces the new GT500 showing just how fast it is in stock form. The GT500 is not slow by any means but it needs some tuning before even approaching a 720S. ...Published on 01-22-2020 11:24 AM
Almost 160 miles per hour out of the factory turbochargers without any nitrous assist? Unreal! This was achieved by Ekanoo Racing in Bahrain. The status of the Bahrain drag strip may make this run questionable for some. ...Published on 01-16-2020 02:07 AM
Well, the McLaren standalone solution finally is here. Introducing the new Syvecs standalone as well as plug and play ECU for M838T V8 equipped McLaren vehicles. This should include the McLaren 570S, 600LT, MP4-12C, 650S, and 675LT coupe and spyder models. ...Published on 01-09-2020 12:23 AM
Here we have the well known Sneaky Snakes blue Gen V Dodge Viper in action again. This is a heads and camshaft upgraded Viper sporting roughly 650 horsepower to the wheels. You saw it previously run the McLaren 600LT in the video before and after it got a tune. ...Published on 12-27-2019 05:02 PM
However you feel about government if you are on this site you likely enjoy driving, modifying, and racing cars. Unfortunately, as you no doubt read certain areas and certain people want to make it illegal for you to work on your car or do anything fun at all with it. ...
