Thread: The Great McLaren SLR 722 Sports Car

Unique technology and impressive design combine to make McLaren SLR 722. The vehicle is built by British motorsports specialists RML Group. Jointly developed by Mercedes-Benz and McLaren Automotive, it has front mid-engined arrangement and unique driving characteristics.



Latest technological features like weight-optimised components, updated engine, specifically tuned chassis and airbrake have been incorporated in the car. The front design has uniquely shaped airsplitter, which splits the air, causing it to flow beneath the vehicle and enhance the front downforce. The car is equipped with 19-inch light-alloy wheels, made of forged aluminium. These light-weight wheels help the car in taking extreme speed in little time. The car’s front and rear suspension system has Double Wishbone. It has internally ventilated front brakes and solid rear brakes.

The racecar features more than 400 unique components compared to the road going version including FIA-spec safety equipment, a fully adjustable suspension, upgraded brakes, carbon fiber bodywork, a towering rear wing, and full race interior. Shifting is done by paddles behind the carbon fiber steering wheel. Thanks to a race-only exhaust, Engine output is increased to 670 horsepower.
