McLaren 570S Spider not hardcore enough for you? Well, fret ye not, because for the price of a whole Mini Cooper, McLaren will equip your new 570S Spider with a ‘Track Pack’ that “brings together a range of practical and visual features suited to circuit use in one pack”. How thoughtful.
Designed to “deliver enhanced levels of driver engagement for owners interested in occasional track days, while still maintaining the daily usability of the McLaren Sports Series convertible”, the pack cuts the Spider’s kerbweight by some 33kg. It adds a lighter, louder exhaust, carbon fibre bucket seats and trim and a telemetry system for monitoring laptimes. Spot one by its ‘Dark Palladium’ roof and lightweight, ten-spoke alloy wheels.
There are no mechanical changes to speak of. So you get the same 3.8-litre, twin-turbo V8, the same 562bhp and 443lb ft as the standard 570S Spider. In that car 0-62mph takes 3.2 seconds, 124mph is seen off in 9.6 seconds and the top speed (roof up) is 204mph. You can read our full review by clicking on these words. McLaren hasn’t confirmed numbers for the Track Pack, but the 33kg weight-saving can’t have had that much of an impact...
