McLaren Senna GTR Shows Up on Bahrain Circuit, Street-Legal Conversion Offered

Remember when McLaren came up with the 720S? The first of its new-age supercars, the machine took the world by storm with its polarising, aero-dictated looks and its hypercar-rivaling acceleration. Well, that wasn't enough for some, which is why the Brits dialed things up to eleven and delivered the Senna.

Now, the Senna is a track special, but Woking is also working to deliver the Senna GTR racecar - we've all seen the concept, with the "production" version set to arrive soon.

Well, as it turns out, certain drivers simply want to... close the circle and hoon the Senna GTR on the street, which is why a road-legal conversion kit is now offered.

The transformation can be found in an ad on James Edition and comes as an option for a slot - the car will be sold out when it reaches the world, with only 75 units set to be built. However, the said website offers a build slot, with this set to come as a lawyer-to-lawyer contract rather than involving the original buyer who made it to the list and the new one.

Of course, the British automotive producer might not be all that happy about it, since we could be talking about a speculative purchase here - the ad clearly states there is a $200,000 premium on top of the $1.45 million MSRP.

There are no details on the said conversion, but this could be handled by Lanzante Motorsport. We're talking about a longtime McLaren racing partner who also delivered street-legal conversions for the P1 GTR and helped build the P1 LM, which is the quickest incarnation of the gas-electric Macca.

Until we get to see somebody making efforts to handle the Senna GTR circuit toy on the street, you can check out one of these machines testing on the Bahrain Circuit in the video below.
