A surprise at the track last weekend

cajun1le · 03-07-2012, 08:44 PM

While I was at the track checking out the local NASA and Auto-X events, this surprise rolled up. A brand new (literally right off the boat) McLaren MP4-12C!

Those things are amazing. I can't wait to get my hands on one.

I wish you the best with the 12C, it is truly one exceptional achievement in automotive engineering.

you're not going to see one of those every day! Well, at least most people won't.

I still prefer the F1 but wouldn't turn my nose up at the 12C....

Straight to the track, eh? Break in proceedure must be different than most cars.

Car is sexy as all heck though.

Sexy machine 4 sure.

The guy that has this car also owns a McLaren F1. I've seen him drive it around the airport about 4 times in the past 6 months.

One of those drove past me on my way back to work from lunch yesterday. I thought it was a Ferrari at first from the front, but when I looked in the rear-view, I knew that backside was not Ferrari.

That's crazy.
