  • Expensive, intense and shockingly fast: the McLaren 765LT is no friendly supercar. Chris Harris is kept on his toes by this 750bhp track special with monster racing pedigree that's capable of speeds over 200mph. Definitely too fast for the road - but is it a fair contest when up against the Aston Martin V8 Vantage F1 Edition and the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm in a Top Gear drag race?

    I'm sorry, but the most impressive thing about this episode of Top Gear was Chris coming within _one second_ of Lando Norris's time in that 765LT... after not only had Lando done his lap, but then done some egregious doughnuts afterwards, to cook the tires some more. It's not out of the realm of possibility that Harris could have _beaten_ Norris's time if the laps had been done in reverse order.

    You have to spend more? No you don't, Car & Driver just did their 2023 Lightning Lap testing and the C8 Z06 did a lap time within .2 seconds of this very car, and significantly faster than the latest GT3 (2 seconds). And not only is it a LOT cheaper than the McLaren, it is naturally aspirated, and it is also considerably cheaper than the GT3. They are also working on a forced induction version of the Z06 (ZR1 version), and one with the forced induction flat plane crank and an electric drive front thousand plus HP Zora version. That should be competing with hyper cars only for a LOT less money.
    I watched a video about the production line for the C8 Z06 and they had some right hand drive Z06's being built, so you should start seeing them in the UK and Europe soon.

      Take the Chiron on a racetrack and it would get owned by the 765LT and many other cars of the same power/weight ratio. Under braking, the Chiron would lose all its acceleration advantage, let alone cornering ability.

      GT3RS is nice but the 765LT is just a different animal. I think if I only had one it would be the gt3rs but I like the 765 more
