McLaren 750S joins the '200 mph club' during its North American dynamic debut

Description

The new McLaren 750S Spider made its North American dynamic debut and became a member of the coveted “200 mph club” at the Sun Valley Tour de Force event on Saturday, July 22nd with former McLaren Formula 1 driver Stefan Johansson piloting the brand’s latest supercar.As part of McLaren’s 60th anniversary celebrations, the new 750S joined its predecessors, the renowned 720S and track focussed 765LT, to aim for the 200mph mark on a 3.2 mile stretch of closed state highway in the heart of scenic Sun Valley, Idaho.Johansson was amongst a bevy of McLaren customers who secured VMAX velocities in excess of 200mph at what has been termed ‘the most unique car event in the country’ – a fundraiser organised to benefit non-profit charities in the local Sun Valley area.The McLaren 750S defines a new benchmark for supercar performance and driver exhilaration. The lightest and most powerful series-production McLaren, the new V8-engined, 740bhp McLaren 750S – available in Coupe and Spider versions – is unashamedly a supercar for the purist. With ferocious performance, it can reach 60mph in just 2.7 seconds and 124mph in 7.2 seconds and – as confirmed by Saturday’s run – an independently verified top speed in excess of 200mph.

  • Bernie Sanders Joins Rally Against Dakota Access Pipeline in DC

    Former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders joined a rally outside the White House on Tuesday, where he condemned the Dakota Access Pipeline and expressed his solidarity with the Native American people. The solidarity rally with the Standing Rock Sioux tribe, which has filed a lawsuit against the pipeline, was organised by 350.org, Sierra Club and other environmental groups. Since it was approved in late July, the 1,172 mile pipeline has sparked outrage among Native American communities and locals. The project, which would cost around $3.8 billion dollars, is expected to carry crude oil from the North Dakota region through South Dakota and Iowa to an existing pipeline in Patoka, Illinois, if completed. Standing Rock Sioux worry that the pipeline, which is slated to travel just north of the tribe's lands and through several nearby rivers which provide water to the tribe, could contaminate their water supply. Thousands of Native Americans representing tribes from all over the country have travelled to North Dakota to camp in the solidarity with Standing Rock Sioux.
