Interesting to see this side of things. What I'd really like to see is a really detailed video of the car with lots of the technical details about the design. It's the design and thought processes that went into building the car that I find extremely interesting. Unfortunately, for such an iconic car, there doesn't really seem to be that much info out there about it.

The guy that took delivery above, hooning around on what I think is a runway.

If you can find a copy of this book..
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Driving-Ambition-Official-Inside-McLaren/dp/1852278412/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1379136388&sr=1-1&keywords=mclaren+f1 It covers the project in great detail...more than most are likely to need... and perhaps covers the down sides more openly than other official stories might.... |
Okay:
- more money than brains? - more money than skill - how soon before he drops that chick?????? |
What would you like to know?
I worked on this project from nearly the start of it to the last car to roll off the line. Started as employee no. 8 at the composite manufacturing facility as a Junior Composite Design Engineer and have many happy memories from my 5yrs working for McLaren At the time it was a lot of hard work so we were too busy to be aware of what an iconic car we are all creating. Its not until I've started looking back at what we achieved that its made me realise how lucky I was to have been involved. Mclaren F1 GTR on Vimeo |

I still want more info. It seems like the more I read or hear about the car, the more I want to know. |
