By now, we've seen McLaren's 675 Longtail in all sorts of scenarios, from track battles to F1 VIP-related moments and yet Woking's ground-ground missile never ceases to amaze us.
The latest feat involving a 675LT shows the machine hitting the drag strip all by itself. In theory, a factory stock vehicle, even one as exciting as this Mac, playing the quarter-mile game all by itself shouldn't be that cool.
Nevertheless, the impressive performance of the 675 allows us to enjoy every second of its 1,320 feet sprint. And yes, this is yet another occasion where the British velocity tool proves that it can easily blur the line between supercars and hypercars.
With the video below, which showcases the Macca's sprint, including the timeslips, we get to see each and every aspect of this beast's drag strip performance.
Sprinting abilties aside, nowadays it can be very difficult for a car to achieve an uber-cool status without also proving something on the drifting front.
At first, it might seem like this 675LT doesn't stand too many chances of delivering a sideways spectacle. After all, McLarens still come with open diffs, relying on electronics to split the power between the rear wheels.
However, the Brits have made serious progress, with the 675 Longtail being one of the best examples of this. In fact, the carmaker even turned to drifting when promoting the Spider incarnation of the LT. And with the company having asked Ayrton Senna's nephew Bruno Senna to be the mentor of its P1 GTR customer racing program, the helmet bearer put the 675LT Spider to sideways work in the launch video of the car.
And if you're looking for truly generous slip angles when behind the wheel of a 675LT, you'll probably need a custom wheel alignment. That and the ability to swiftly get yourself out of self-brought trouble.
