Building a Chassis-Mounted Wing on a McLaren 720 GTR

The plan is to build a McLaren 720 GTR, and with it, come various upgrades and modifications. The most noticeable change will be the addition of an aggressive side skirt design. This will give the car a more aerodynamic appearance and improve its overall look. However, adding such a significant feature requires expertise, which is why the author has decided to seek out a professional engineer to handle this aspect.

The goal is to create a wing that is mounted on the chassis, providing improved downforce and stability at high speeds. This will be crucial for track performance, allowing the driver to push the car harder without losing control. The author acknowledges that this project requires careful planning and execution, as it involves modifying a complex vehicle like the McLaren 720 GTR.

A Render of the Future Car

Recently, the author received a render from an online friend who specializes in creating detailed designs of cars. This render shows what the future car might look like, with various modifications and upgrades. The render is impressive, showcasing the potential design and features that could be added to the 720 GTR.

While rendering and actual implementation are two different processes, this early design provides valuable insight into what's possible. The author is eager to see how these ideas can be translated into a real-world vehicle.

Braxton: A New Addition to Mike's Garage

Mike, a billionaire with a passion for cars, recently acquired a new Brixton. This sleek ride turned heads, thanks to its stunning design and impressive features. The wheels on this car are particularly noteworthy – they're completely forged and machined from a single block of aluminum.

These unique wheels offer improved durability and aesthetics compared to traditional wheel designs. They also feature a clever lift system that allows the owner to adjust the height of the vehicle, providing better clearance and performance. Mike's love for cars is evident in his extensive collection, and this new addition solidifies his reputation as a car enthusiast.

The Weirdest Part: The Seat Belt and Park Brake System

During testing, the author discovered some unusual features on the 720 GTR. One of these quirks is the seat belt system – instead of following the conventional path from the right shoulder to the door, it veers off in an unconventional direction. Additionally, the park brake mechanism has a sloping design, requiring drivers to pull it up slightly before releasing it.

These peculiarities might take some getting used to, but they're essential for the car's functionality and performance. The author is eager to learn more about these features and fine-tune the driving experience.

The Gas Station Challenge

During a recent drive, Mike decided to challenge his friend with a gas station stop. The goal was to fill up the most gallons of gasoline within a set time limit. After a series of fuel-ups and comparisons, the winner emerged – a remarkable feat that showcased the car's performance capabilities.

Dave, a fellow car enthusiast, expressed admiration for Mike's driving skills and enthusiasm for his 720 GTR. As they parted ways, Dave joked about being Mike's handler, unaware that he was indeed driving one of Mike's cars. Despite the humor, it's clear that both parties share a deep passion for cars and an appreciation for the unique features that make them special.

Driving with a Drink in Hand

Mike took to the road once again, this time facing a new challenge: driving a manual transmission while holding a drink. The absence of cup holders meant he had to adapt his technique, using one hand to accelerate, shift gears, and hold onto the steering wheel, while keeping the other hand clutch-free. As he navigated the streets, it became apparent that this was not as simple as it seemed – and he lived to tell another day!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enoh the 720's bad whoa that's a demon face you watch damon when doing a stunt in the car look at this you know what i'm talking about apparently there's some wheels here i'm not sure if they're for the c8 or the huracan i'm really hoping for a proper italian supercar the huracan somewhere in here somewhere let's see oh oh wheels new wheels dave what's up hey i found your new wheels dude it is going to be so sick you guys welcome back to another episode of daily driven exotics we are in august garage's wheel warehouse we just had a new set of wheels delivered for the cars we don't want to give it away yet but brixton forged absolutely killed it i would imagine i'm trying not to die because i'm standing on very wobbly tires what is that them i'm pretty sure these are your quarterback these wheels are tailor-made for your corvette those are not my favorites those are not my quarterback no no no no no no no no okay okay we're going over to the real wheels they're right over there all right guys one of our cars by the way it's like 44 degrees here today it's the desert i could potentially die in this car today one of them it's getting a complete makeover wheels is one of the first modifications you should do in your car it gives it the craziest freshest new look now we have four cars in our fleet that don't have wheels there's two cars for each of us you have your huracan you have your squadron i have the 720 i got the c8 right i get the wheels today well hold on let's go in perspective of the whole whole enchilada of our fleet all your cars are wheels none of mine have wheels stock deals you just said all my cars have wheels i said two of my cars don't have wheels well you can't say all my cars have always averages that's how it works the average of your cars have wheels my two averages stock was in the car for a year i got you wheels on the mclaren you had wheels and you're mclaren my mclaren's got no wheels first of all this is one of the biggest modifications you can do on a car because right now these cars all have stock wheels oem wheels from the mclaren pretty cool but a little basic fanny looking the wheels on the squadron i actually really like these i don't think you should change them just so i can get my wheels today these wheels are actually pretty sick gloss black really clean i like that spoke design these need to be changed i do whoa these need to be why are you gonna pick all my cars bro the eight wheels aren't that bad they're actually pretty sick actually look good when the car is rolling these wheels are the most basic wheels you can those are good from lamborghini yeah those are twelve thousand dollars from lamborghini that's the worst part who wants to pay twelve thousand dollars for these i took them off immediately sell them for twelve thousand dollars so hyped them up a little bit these are the best builds you can get for a lamborghini so look we have a brand new set of bricks and forged wheels that is gonna go on one of these cars can you guess where these are gonna go because we're about to unveil the wheels and then you're gonna see which car is going on okay it's time to finally unbox these and at least show you guys what we've got for the car you might not have any clue what this is for and we're cutting i'm really excited because these are like four or five weeks overdue just because due to covid and boom it's a black foam wheel it's in the first of its kind there you guys have it that's it that's what it looks like no more mystery what car is that for let's mount some tires one two three well there's a net hold on there's a whole nother cover on the cover they really protect these they're covered you get it guys can you guys see can you see what what wheel they are yet and they're uh one of my favorite details is this little forked carbon center cap so sick what are you doing we need to go and have some blood let's change the water over dude night janitor night janitor is what you are when i was at like 14 my job was to fill the water plant i used to fill these i was like 88 pounds trying to lift these things up my dad my dad owned the company to yell at me flex my dad owned the company okay we're going for lunch will they put the wheels on the car when we get back we'll reveal the whole thing in the meantime we're going to go have some fun with a very special car that is back to the channel that's right and there she is doors go up dave show him shut the door show them the door start the doors why'd you have to set up the alarm okay it's like a oven in there dude regular third degree burn right away people don't understand how hot it is it's like 180 degrees right here i think you convert it from celsius oh that's a merge shirt you got some merch where did you get that shirt from uh tropdy.com that's right you guys links are in description the shifter the shifter's metal yeah you know how hot that is hot burn my hand hotter than that get in there mike all right ready italian air conditioning we drive with the doors up oh leather black leather ah do you think that's how it touch this seriously touch it holy holy seriously it's so hot air conditioning italian air conditioning with the doors so right now we're in a heat wave it's about 38 degrees celsius but in fahrenheit jamie will add right here oh look how hot it is in fahrenheit oh i love this car it it's so is it's so hot how's the car feel i've been in this car yet god sounds good it's amazing look at this thing look at the presents this car has on the ground it's everything that embodies a super car and this is the true super car in my opinion this is not the modern easy to drive there's not an easy car to drive apparently i can't even park it look how crooked i am that's one hell of a lamborghini full park job it's so aggressive looking it's super low to the ground and again you have to actually work to drive this car being a manual all right guys lunch is over so freaking hot out i know we keep talking about it but seriously i'm like dying right now we've talked about building dave's car the 720 has so much potential one of my favorite features of the tire slayer is the chassis mounted wing one of my favorite cars of all time is the p1 but more importantly the p1 gtr people who took that car it was supposed to be like a track only car and they somehow made it so that it could be road going now i want to create a 720 gtr i want to get a longer extended carbon front splitter i want way more aggressive side skirts and i want to find a way to build a chassis mounted wing i'm gonna have to find a proper engineer and have that all set up properly because i don't want to disrupt the arrow on that car there's a lot of tech and arrow in a mclaren so that is the plan the overall scheme is to build a mclaren 720 gtr now i had a friend online that i've met just through the internet who does renders of cars and he made me a render of potentially what my 720 gtr could look like you guys and i'm gonna show you guys right here so you can see how insane that looks now obviously making a render and making it render to reality are two different things but we're gonna do our best so there you have it now you know kind of the uh the road for the 720 so just brakes work all right i'm totally gonna tease you guys these two boxes here that say dd on them and agency power with my g wagon my g63 this is a lift kit no i'm not going to sell them today and no i'm not going to tell you how tall i'm going i want you to guess below this is a two inch lift three inch four inch six inch it's a 12 inch tires from x comp are on the way as soon as tires get here we're lifting the g wagon all right mike you son of a they go for a cruise i'm ready we have a surprise for you officially waiting damon come around the corner and what you're driving today you're coming in a place not a prius there you go mike ready you guys

that has enough money to replace this baby now to all jokes aside you guys the wheels look absolutely amazing these are completely forged machined at a one solid big block of aluminium or however you want to say it uh they killed it they do this thing on the r series line where they do this machined lift which i thought was really cool because it was not like it was planned but the stock wheel came with like a flat face big fat machine lift and i didn't really like it but this is a much more tasteful way to do it that'll keep standing on the wheel mike mike oh mike's been working out yeah i got my bottle of the world's wettest water august water let me put it in the mercia logo bottle holder that's where it is right there throw her into first gear by the way this is the weirdest part there's some weird things about this car first of all the seat belt goes from your right shoulder over towards the door not the opposite way and the park brake is like sloopy sloopy floppy whatever you want to call it so you got to pull it up pull it up one little bit push the button in and that's how you release the park brake let's hit the road hey you ready to do this or what i'm ready you right now ready good job what the okay let's play a gas station challenge who paid for the most gasters now 66. what do you got on the back before oh 66 on the squadron takes it must be that supercharger 41.92 how's that possible yeah well i had i had 99 of a tank you put 130 in it you've driven it not at all i know how did you put another 40 in it that's welcome to v12 life well nice shirt it's good to be a huge fan of dave i heard him say dave he didn't say damon did he awesome thanks so much guys hey my pleasure today have a good day guys you said dave and he said bye to dave i don't even think he knows who i am i think he thinks i'm your handler i think he thinks this car is your car thank god here we go are you watching at home ready to go dave's ego just okay this is where it gets a little tricky driving a manual while drinking and there's no cup holders in here so you gotta accelerate switch hands shift hand back on the wheel or take hand off the wheel shake hand
