@@AdamTobolowsky hello again, I came to ask is how do you have so much options of what car to race? Does a racing Company offer you good quality cars to race or do you buy them?
Awesome video, thanks for sharing! It is rare to get pov driving videos of cars like this... and of course, it isn't a Mclaren track video without a low tire pressure warning :D
Don't know about McLaren's specifically, but you get a warning light at only 4lbs low on a Porsche. Doesn't take long from dropping tire pressures after a couple sessions to get the light. It's all about getting the proper pressure at the end of the session, not where you start. Sometimes you have to start with a low # to get to the ultimate pressure at the end. One yr at Indy it was hot so I was bleeding off pressure throughout the day. We also had 2.5 hrs between sessions so the tires cooled off. On the grid for the last session my dash said my left rear was flat (7lbs low). I opened the door and looked - not flat but low from a day's worth of deflating. By the end of the session it was at the ideal pressure.
The track is smooth as butter (aside from entry to turn 3 it seems). got to find time to get back out there again soon. sorry I missed this weekend, brother.
@@dustinmcgovney7684 it's the GTR, it's a race car. That said, it didn't have an optimized setup for the track, wasn't pushed to GT qualification level, and had a passenger and traffic on its fastest lap. It's faster than GT3 cars
What time do you think it would ultimately be capable of? I always wonder with these kind of hyper "track day" cars if they're capable of beating something like a GTE car that actually costs less.
The big dawgs think it can do a 1:59-2:00 flat at COTA. This car didn’t have a setup on it, had a passenger, traffic...so I’m sure I had a clean 2:05-2:06 in there. It’s possible for sure but only with insurance lol
Great driving. Looks planted...what an awesome sort of race cars. What was that event owners bringing their own cars or what? vulcan, bac mono, ford gt, amg gt3, bunch of porsche etc. Were you the fastest car out there?
roletnabih thanks man, car didn’t even have the proper setup on it yet and really rewards you if you under drive it. Smooth is fast in this car...it’s our Trackrat group. We are a Texas based group of track friends, we have a really neat list of vehicles in our bunch. I was the fastest :)
I honestly haven’t piloted the P1 GTR, yet! But I have a ton of laps in the P1 and I have a good idea what it would be like. This one is much lighter but doesn’t have the same power curve, of course. I believe the Senna GTR has more drag as well... I would say the Senna is really on its toes compared!
@@AdamTobolowsky Thanks so much for the reply! The Senna really is in its own league right now, until probably the Valkyrie arrives. I hope you'll be able to get your hands on one of those as well at some point!
TheMuffinMan365 I will actually go try the RFactor 2 Senna GTR this afternoon and report back... I suggest getting a dual purpose or track only car that has a great balance of vehicle dynamics and start signing up for local track events. As you get fast, you will make the right friends 😊🙌

@@AdamTobolowsky That's a pretty impressive speed. And that was only in 5th gear. @ 12:07 6th and 7th gears still remain. I wonder if there is a track where the 7th speed could be used to top revs. Because of that i am wondering if the gear ratio could be shorter to improve acceleration a little bit.
This has more drag but more power then the Senna. I still saw 176mph via gps. Which is about spot on with the Senna as my exit and min speed on the previous corner was better in the GTR
@@AdamTobolowsky ahhhh gotcha. So about the same then maybe a couple mph quicker. I've seen 174 from the 720s. Curious how that Senna gtrs laptime is compared to the 720s gt3.
@@AdamTobolowsky I would actually like A Senna to have Koenigsegg level of power. As far as I can see, the car is super stable, the light weight means it's actually quite a bit faster than a Moto GP bike in the corners and doesn't move around like the P1 GTR does. Someone actually compared the Senna gtr to Marquez on his bike! Given the times a professional driver can set, I think the Senna can lap the track just as fast as a Moto GP bike. Or Faster if there are lots of corners involved.
When you're driving a Senna GTR, everything else is a chicane.
You said it! Let me know when you go to COTA next and if you want me to teach you everything I know 😘 😊
@SupraFanBoy no a chicane
A chicken. Noice m8
@@AdamTobolowsky the bromance is off the charts in this car and I love it ❤

May be it's because he's driva a Mclaren Senna gtr on track and barely broke 120 mph on the front straight?
That braking performance is brutal.
Imagine driving your vulcan and getting walked by another car
Ha, he’s my buddy but the AMR upgraded Vulcan is only a tad slower than the Senna GTR, lap time wise! 🖖

This car has my most favourite flat-plane v8, something about the smoothness and the sound of the engine revving.
Vulcan holding you up, only at COTA lol.
a trick : you can watch series at flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.
@Lorenzo Shawn definitely, I have been watching on flixzone for years myself :)
Another killer video! Thanks for posting
Great video, car has so much performance but also balance and compliance at the same time
this is a pure racing machine..
This was an absolute joy to watch.
I always love the sound of the McLaren Senna car
I would love to see an fxxk evo and a essenza scv12 here
2:08.5.... That’s insane.
Uhh.. Formula 1?
Bottas did a 1.32
Formula lol • 11 years ago Okay? This isn’t an F1 car, it’s a production car running close to GT3/GTE times. It’s impressive.
@@dustinmcgovney7684 oh yeah didn't think that way, my bad.

Excellent driving, sir!
That thing is an absolute rocket

Considering these cars are not restricted by any regulations I would say yes they are capable.

Mclaren claims that this is faster than a gt3 car. It is easier and more forgiving for sure, but on low speed tracks who knows?
I can really see that the driver is driving more aggressive on the last lap lol
Will someone tell this man that his tyre pressures are low!

the cars on this track... Was that a Vulcan? Who are you people?
lol right! That was a Vulcan :) taking the Vulcan to Laguna Seca next month 😳🤤
Is this yours or passenger's? amazing! Thanks for sharing
My students car...passenger :)
SO NICE! Is Envy a deadly sin? Should it be, really?
Awesome video, Adam. I’m curious as to how the Senna GTR compares to the P1 GTR? Does the former feel nimbler to you?

Daniel Dickerson I have two buddies getting Valks so it should be game on in the future! P1 GTR though 🙌 thanks again!
@@AdamTobolowsky How does the senna gtr compare to the FXXK evo?
Niki Nik I honestly haven’t played with one but I’ve been around them. This should be a tad quicker....just a newer, more a radical design.
Mac Laren the boss 🤩
wow that is awesome
Looks like a racing video game 🤣
Laps times would be cool.. 2:12 expected…
Did a 2:08 with a passenger in the car 👍without the proper alignment 😁
I wonder how the Senna GTR will stack up against it's sibling the P1 GTR
KAD 37 the Senna GTR would net a quicker lap time, has more downforce and is lighter. The P1 would out accelerate it
@@AdamTobolowsky ok tnx✌️
This car should have a Honda engine
嘩把聲好撚靚、車款又夠型，真的沒話可說。
The car is very special, super beast for sure!
What tires were used?
Pirelli Slicks 🙌
Um did you set it to mph or kph
Wow this sim is so realistic. Better than real life 🧐
Only video games have the GTR lol
Is this an arrive and drive program of some kind?
Just a track day during the WEC race weekend.
Do you use both feet when racing in an automatic?
For the most part, yes. Some do not for fuel saving reasons but that person has mastered left foot braking.
Brutal!! 🔥
Have you compared this to the rfactor2 senna gtr? (Also how do you get into racing)
TheMuffinMan365 I will actually go try the RFactor 2 Senna GTR this afternoon and report back... I suggest getting a dual purpose or track only car that has a great balance of vehicle dynamics and start signing up for local track events. As you get fast, you will make the right friends 😊🙌

Adam Tobolowsky I am a little late but I am really curious if you found the rfactor2 version accurate :)
I recommend go karting! Its alot cheaper and you get the same experience!
Please what is a reference of the rear view camera 🙏
Fred 19 it’s a Motec rear view camera 🙌
You can drive my man
He should have stopped by Les Schwab's before hitting the track. They could have fixed up that fire.
Would it be better that it have shorter gears?
It was actually going 176.8mph, Speedo is reading the wrong sensor. Car has ton of aero drag at high speed but gearing seems fine.
@@AdamTobolowsky That's a pretty impressive speed.
And that was only in 5th gear. @ 12:07
6th and 7th gears still remain. I wonder if there is a track where the 7th speed could be used to top revs.

Imagine if his tyres were actually inflated
I was at spec pressures during the 2:08 lap, car has TPMS integrated into the Motec dash 🖖
is this acceleration slower than the normal senna?
This has more drag but more power then the Senna. I still saw 176mph via gps. Which is about spot on with the Senna as my exit and min speed on the previous corner was better in the GTR
Mph Or Km/h???
MPH and reading wheel
Speed sensors. Motec GPS was 176.8 top speed, it’s not reading correctly on the dash.
Full send
fantastique
Awesome sound forza horizon 4 actually managed to copy it really well it sounds very similar
COTA is everything about hairpin, you need to brake and steer so hard
Wow!!
Top end really suffers with all that downforce. 720s is faster down the straight. Needs1000hp.
Gus I actually was doing 176.7mph, speedo is displaying the wrong channel.

Joshua Roose went 176mph via GPS, it’s not slow. The dash is displaying mph from the wrong source...😁
😧😧😧 Tire Pressure Low!!!... haha sry, can't stop reading that damn alert
Every McLaren on track right now as I type has a low Tire pressure warning lol
oh crap haha
The street version of the senna is slow
What do you mean slow?
the engine not great
Mclaren made not engine maker
