Top track-only supercars

For those with money to burn a track only version of a supercar is the ultimate expression of automotive decadence.

McLaren P1 GTR. McLaren’s 3.8-litre engine and race ready components are exploited to their upmost in the P1 GTR. 1,000bhp on tap insures all a gentleman driver can handle.
McLaren-Mercedes SLR 722 GT. The car is a grand tourer jointly developed by Mercedes-Benz and McLaren Automotive and sold from 2003 to 2010. When the car was developed, Mercedes-Benz owned 40 percent of the McLaren Group. The 722 GT appeared in 2007.
Pagani Zonda R. The car debuted at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, using the 6.0-litre M120 V12 engine sourced from the racing version of the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR. 15 examples were made.
Lamborghini Sesto Elemento. The car debuted at the 2010 Paris Motor Show and isn't as hard core as others. With a 562bhp engine borrowed from the Gallardo Superleggera, and a weight of just 999kg, it’s no beach ball. It’s rare, with 20 built.
Ferrari FXX K. The FXX K combines the legendary Ferrari V12 with an F1-style electric motor system for a grand total of 1,036bhp.

It will hit 60mph from a standstill in two and a half seconds on to a 220mph barrier for those with enough bravery to try. 40 ultra-rich owners get special stroking through Ferrari’s special XX track day program.
