Was thinking about swapping out the GT4 for an Artura, but saw Chris Harris complain the rear is unsettled on track.
Then they redid the suspension for `25, may get one in McLaren Orange.
Anyone track their McLarens?

Hopefully taking mine out to Sonoma next month. We'll see, I've got a lot going on health and work-wise right now. In street driving, at least, the Artura is better than the 750S to me. Artura is lots of fun at 6/10ths and playful. You start to feel the weight more when pushed harder, but I don't like doing that on the street. 750S really wants to be driven at 9/10ths to wake up. So it made the choice between the two easy for me (that and I love the relative PHEV efficiency, makes me feel slightly better about it).
Have some friends who do a decent number of track days on their McLarens and from what I've heard from them the Artura is a great car let down by its tires, but feel is great. On track the 750S is another level, though.
Coming from a GT4, I think you'd be quite happy with the Artura.

I'm on my second daily driver McLaren and they've been rock solid. The Taycan on the other hand...

ANd they never burst into flames or have a tragic reputation for unreliability!

A FOAF bought a Taycan for his wife as he wanted a reliable car vs his McLaren! They were planning a cross Europe trip and he said half jokingly whilst the Taycan needs the charging stops planning, he will need to plan where to meet the McLaren rescue folks en route, at approximately the same regularity.
