The McLaren F1 LM is a street-legal version of the F1 GTR racecar, built to celebrate the 5 F1 GTRs that finished the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans race.

Overview[]

Text originally from the McLaren F1 LM's Wikipedia article.

In late 1995, McLaren built five F1 LMs (LM for Le Mans) in honour of the five McLaren F1 GTR's that finished the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans and took the overall win.

McLaren designed the standard F1 as an ultimate road car, in the sense that it strives to be comfortable and usable in everyday conditions despite being a potent sports car. However, the LM edition is a lower and stiffer, track-oriented vehicle, with a stripped down, bare interior, and solid aluminium bushings in place of the rubber bushings in the suspension system and without the Ground Plane Shear Centre system on the standard F1.

The McLaren F1 LM, named McLaren F1LM, was added to the game in the Lamborghini Season Update, and officially released in the British Season Update as a high-ranked Class B car with the following rank statistics:

Performance[]

At its stock rank, the McLaren F1 LM has a top speed rating of 362, below average acceleration rating (64.9), and average handling (50.37) and nitro efficiency (51.94) ratings. The F1 LM's subpar acceleration means that it rarely ever reaches its maximum speed under constant steering and drifting and/or driving on rough surfaces. However, the F1 LM has a very tight drift radius, allowing it to drift through even hairpin bends without scraping a wall. The F1 LM also has soft suspension, which allows it to retain much of its speed around corners by performing a 360 "floaty" at corner entry. However, the soft suspension also makes the car moderately bouncy; coupled with its stiff steering and high speed, the F1 LM is prone to wrecking when wallriding.

Upgrades to the F1 LM give the greatest improvements to its nitro efficiency, followed by top speed, then handling, with the least improvements to its acceleration. The upgrades amplify the strongest trait of the F1 LM—its top speed—while also giving respectable improvements to its other performance characteristics, although its acceleration is still relatively poor versus other Class B cars of a similar rank.

Once all upgrades are applied, the McLaren F1 LM has a maximum possible nitro-boosted speed of 392 km/h (243.5 mph) and airborne speed of 526 km/h (326.9 mph), making it one of the fastest non-Class S cars in the game.

Usage[]

The usefulness of the McLaren F1 LM depends on the ability of the player to first get up to its top speed quickly, then maintain it throughout the race. This is more difficult at lower star ratings because the F1 LM's stock handling and nitro efficiency ratings are only average, so it typically consumes its nitro faster than it can get to its top speed and loses a considerable amount of speed driving on rough surfaces. The F1 LM's tight drift radius can offset its stiff steering around tight corners. As such, the F1 LM dominates on tracks with long straights, such as Cairo, Himalayas and Shanghai, and it can still remain very competitive on tracks with a mix of corners and long straights, such as Auckland, Buenos Aires, and New York. It generally performs worse on tracks with many corners and a lack of straights, such as Osaka and The Caribbean.

In Multiplayer World Series, the F1 LM is unlocked for use once the player reaches Gold League. While the F1 LM's very high top speed makes it an apparent shoo-in for best Gold League car, in practice, its poor acceleration gives it poor starts and makes its recovery from knockdowns considerably slower than many other cars, thus limiting its actual usefulness. During Slipstream seasons, the F1 LM's slower acceleration is largely countered by nitrosurfing other cars, making it a formidable contender on most tracks.

As it is one of the 5 top-ranked Class B cars at MAX, the McLaren F1 LM is eligible for participation in the Elite: Class B event, held once every 5 weeks, which rewards Tokens tokens.

Availability[]

Up to Epic Blueprints 15 McLaren F1 LM blueprints were first obtainable during the one-off "15 Years of Asphalt" time-limited event, held during The American Season Update. Subsequently, its blueprints were only obtainable through exclusive limited-time offers in the Shop that either cost real money or were available for purchase with Tokens tokens.

The Keys key for the F1 LM was first obtainable from its Grand Prix Event during The British Season Update. It could also be obtained from its Unleashed event.
