I believe Phil in the McLaren Senna is the guy who's friends with Sam of "Seen through glass" and was recently in Sam's Video where he let Sam drive the Senna. He stated that he bought the Senna for track use so it's great to see him using it as intended.
NutriFIT nutritie si fitnes Have you watched the whole video?......Sorry to disappoint but scroll to 2.53 to catch a glimpse of what the Senna is capable of!
Meme Patrol better on paper? Well I mean for straight lines just the 720s drops most of its competitors. Yet alone getting a lighter track focused car that has even more power lmao
Again enjoyed this. Wanna do it. Do you have a follow up video on the specific items you mentions like the tires and other add improvements. How was the after track fluids and seals? Happy Holidays.
Thanks for the sweet video. I did Laguna Seca several years ago in an AP1 S2000 and really enjoyed it, although the straights favor higher horsepower machines. Sears Point, on the other hand is far more of a finesse circuit. If you can get turns 2, 3 & 4 linked, and 7, 8A and 8B, it's not about horsepower... Nice drive!
Very nice! I've had the pleasure of getting my doors blown off by some exotic stuff in my day, but this takes the cake! As you said, good on him for using it as intended.
Marxs042 So you think it’s all bout looks now. Any racing driver wants something challenging not your slay queen styled or instagram filtered hypercar. Just for views and shit. Senna is the shit to beat. Beat the performance with your shit kit cars.
Fastest Phil ran was a 1'32, that was with the lift for the sound check. He has another two seconds in him I think. A pro who drove the Senna at Laguna has stated that 1'27 should be possible on an unrestricted day. Someone should put slicks that car and aim for 1'23
So jealous you get to drive this great track! I've only driven it on simulators, and it's still great. :) S2000 is such a great little car. McLaren isn't too shabby either! :D
I still regret that I wasn't able to take my STi to a track day at Laguna Seca in the short time that I lived in Seaside 🙈. Nice video, it's always interesting when you're in track with more exotic machinery 😂 (I've had my RoW E36 M3's doors blown off by an Aventador, a 997 GT2, a few KTM Xbows, C6 ZR1, etc at the Bahrain international Circuit 😮). If you are having pad fade on track, check out G-Loc brakes, shoot Danny an email and he'll set you up with the right compound for track days in that environment/car/track combination 👍
Round a track, the Senna is insane. Wonder what the Senna will do on a small autocross track like the goodguys autocross? Though the way he handled the S2000, is quite good. Especially since it's a manual.
@@Zygrene I just sold my gt3 otherwise I'd let you give it a try at one of the socal tracks. I know you review cars every now and then. I picked up a 570s if you are ever in socal to review
Imagine Ayrton Senna being revived and chasing the McClaren with a tastefully 'murdered' (Completely modified to Senna's approval with a twist of rouge) NSX.
The difference between a Senna and an S2000 is that the average person could afford an S2000, and build it up over time for more performance, and still daily it. Lots of fun in a reliable, cheap package. I wish more supercar owners could drive as well as you drive your Honda!
While I probably could afford the Senna itself, and do spend a decent amount of time on the track, I don’t think I could ever bring myself to bring a car that nice out on the track for a trashing... they just get so beat up out there! I would have to be worth a lot more than I am to get to the point where I wouldn’t care what happened to a car like that, so congrats Phil for having stupid money! Enjoy that Senna!
That would be bonkers, especially if it's happening at the bridge (where they put the digital speed readout for the historics in 2011, and I think ALMS also).
You should look at upgrading to a used Corvette. It's very similar to your S2000 just with a couple hundred more horses. Keep up the great video's. : )
Ehhh, not really a c5 doesn’t weight all that much. I’ll think that gutting it would get it under 3000 lbs(if it’s a z06 tho). However, i think he’ll be better off upgrading the s2k than to get a whole new car. The s2k is a gnarly platform for racing
Jonny Tran and his gang got.. "Too soon Jr'd" big time. That's all I saw in this video. So much for YT, FB, and even Jalopnik recommendations. Total clickbait.
Dont know why you're trying to justify being beaten by a Senna. Let it go. Anyone with enough experience in their Senna as you have had in your S2000 would make it look alot worse. The captions just make it look like you're explaining why you're being destroyed. ''oh well ykno, my driving is awsum but like the Senna is lighter and has more power and all that aero and better tyres and shit... so yeh he beat me by old ass, stock S2000 by like 10 seconds but only 10 seconds...'' I'm sure an experienced Senna driver could shave another 5 off that.
oh really do you think for sec with this crappy s2000 u can beat a mclaren senna . this is like bringing a knife to a gun fight. next time to destroy the senna and make mclaren regret the moment theyve decided to make this car , bring the beast the one and only Honda civic V Tec. be sure the owners of sennas will ask you about the retail of one of these . and you can reply fully confident : more than you can handle palll

That's right! I randomly came across that video the night before track day. It was cool meeting Phil in person. Super friendly guy.
correct. i also drove it on road vs P1 and it's bloody fast: ruclips.net/video/_CuYRrXCRYI/видео.html
NutriFIT nutritie si fitnes Have you watched the whole video?......Sorry to disappoint but scroll to 2.53 to catch a glimpse of what the Senna is capable of!
Its amazing there are people who can spend $1+ million on a toy.... where did we go wrong!
You need to unlock Super Vtec 2 to defeat that Senna.
I wish McLaren would put up an official Nurburgring time for the Senna. Very cool video. I appreciate the subtitles.
McLaren is like chill company, they don't do public stunt like that i guess
Refian S No, just like Bugatti they don't want its rival super cars to officially perform better on paper
Meme Patrol better on paper? Well I mean for straight lines just the 720s drops most of its competitors. Yet alone getting a lighter track focused car that has even more power lmao

Meme Patrol understandable, have a nice day.
I like the subtitles you put in the video!
Great video man. You were on the track with fantastic machines. You should be proud!
Achievement unlocked: discovering the true power of VTEC
Great subtitles! So nice to read honest thoughts instead of a list of excuses. Nice car, good driving. Stay safe and have fun!
so... whats the retail price for one of those? more than i can afford, pal!
呱呱玩车 i believe its 865,000 pounds or around that
Mclaren!
They were already sold out I belive
Too soon Junior.
LMAO "unlocking the true power of VTEC"
You done good.
Senna is that you in the s2000?
That is one sorted out S2k, congrats! Im sure Senna would choose the S2k for a spin on the track lol
Again enjoyed this. Wanna do it. Do you have a follow up video on the specific items you mentions like the tires and other add improvements. How was the after track fluids and seals? Happy Holidays.
I fucking adore Phil.. one of the coolest guys on the planet..
Please tell us he let you drive it and a review is coming soon...
That would be a dream come true for him and us :)
Haha I wish!

What mods are on your S2K?
Looking to build a track car myself.
Cool video to see Honda playing with the big boys
AP2 motor, Ohlins coilovers 14k/12k, lots of supporting suspension mods, bucket seat, roll bar, Voltex wing, and upgraded pads/fluid
Very nice! I've had the pleasure of getting my doors blown off by some exotic stuff in my day, but this takes the cake! As you said, good on him for using it as intended.
I think Senna himself would prefer the S2k

@@marvistv6551 He did not say anything about looks.Also the Senna is very driver friendly.
MarvisTv lol where did that come from?...
Nope.
MarvisTv Is this your way of saying that the S2K looks beautiful? And who the hell thinks that an S2K is a hypercar? I don't understand you
Great video, funny commentary. More importantly, great driving and consistency
Hey I was in the Gold group same day! Lotta fun, but i cant find any photos from that day. Have you had any luck with the professional photographers?
Fastest Phil ran was a 1'32, that was with the lift for the sound check. He has another two seconds in him I think. A pro who drove the Senna at Laguna has stated that 1'27 should be possible on an unrestricted day. Someone should put slicks that car and aim for 1'23
Shadowboost what are the restriction ? rpm ?
@@djchasingsummerjoan people basically when you have no one on track
Wow, you were hustlin' that Honda around the track!
Only if you were wearing comfy dress shoes while you heel/toed is around the track. (NSX @ Suzuka)
do you see your camera in your peripherals?
I see it but it doesn't block my vision at all
Wow a Senna being used on the track
The owner said that he bought it for the track
As it should be used.
Why not
@@gsheverything_2716 It's rare and also very good to see people using a supercar on the track.
Lol where else can you let lose?
I did a 31 around here once, in a Radical. Sweet track!
Nice driving!
Is that Phil from the SeenThroughGlass Feature ? Gg Phil gg
Yep that's him!
So jealous you get to drive this great track! I've only driven it on simulators, and it's still great. :)
S2000 is such a great little car. McLaren isn't too shabby either! :D
Great video, great attitude, great driving, +1 likes. Also, congrats on having Jalopnik notice you. haha
How long have you been driving? Pretty impressed. Great contents.
Been driving manual for 6 years, tracking for 3!
Who would win?
One of the most powerful Mclaren ever built
vs
One Jdm Boi
By your driving the car look like it needs stickier tires and possibly a rear wing.
I wonder if that Radical is faster, might be through the corners, but either way its good to see such valuable cars on a great track!
Not really once u push senna so areo kicks in it is makeing stupid times specially on tracks where are high speed corners and hard brakeing
Congrats on the Jalopnik feature!

I love this track. Gran Turismo got it right.
It legitimately sounded like you actually thought you had a chance against the Senna.
Hey, one can dream!
you closed because obviously he went down low to pull in front compromising the line hence slowing him down.
Nice driving!
Round a track, the Senna is insane. Wonder what the Senna will do on a small autocross track like the goodguys autocross? Though the way he handled the S2000, is quite good. Especially since it's a manual.
was this a private event or did you run with a group like HOD???
it was an open track day with SpeedSF
Not even the almighty S2000 can keep up.
Incredible, someone who doesn't underestimate an S2000! Is it a miracle?
Here's the real question, when are we going to see you on track with a GT3? I think you'll be deadly on track with that !
When someone trusts me enough to hand me the keys to one, cause I can't afford one anytime soon 😔
@@Zygrene I just sold my gt3 otherwise I'd let you give it a try at one of the socal tracks. I know you review cars every now and then. I picked up a 570s if you are ever in socal to review

For sure!
who won?
inb4 "too soon junior" joke
Congrats you are on Jalopnik dude
You took it easy on that McLaren didn't you????.....sneaky dawg you are!!....
I drove this racetrack as a child in gran tourismo 2
Imagine Ayrton Senna being revived and chasing the McClaren with a tastefully 'murdered' (Completely modified to Senna's approval with a twist of rouge) NSX.
Great driving man.
A better title "how fast the Mclaren Senna passed the S2000 and disappeared into the distance"
Watching this I know the senna r is either a too scared to go balls to the wall cuz his car so expensive or b not going very hard on purpose
Smooth technique!
Okay sooo when I go, I get 30 GT86's and some GT3's, and you got all the toys :(.
I'm sure it had a lot to do with the sound limits
When VTEC kicks in
Aye jalopnik picked this vid up!
Nice captions Ayrton!
Phil should take his Stratos on there
He’s got over 100k under that hood of his S2000

Brett Friedrichsen Who told you they ain’t driving well. Is it everyday you see a senna on track? Stfu
@@marvistv6551 It was a general statement. If you get confused, maybe ask for clarification before you act like an asshole.
My car won't pass sound at Laguna ._., otherwise I'd join you guys.
Makes me miss my AP1 so much :-(
even if i had the money to fix it, i would not be driving a mclaren at 10/10ths
Driver > Car
You just gotta have the balls (and probably money) to thrash any car on the limit
While I probably could afford the Senna itself, and do spend a decent amount of time on the track, I don’t think I could ever bring myself to bring a car that nice out on the track for a trashing... they just get so beat up out there! I would have to be worth a lot more than I am to get to the point where I wouldn’t care what happened to a car like that, so congrats Phil for having stupid money! Enjoy that Senna!
Teach us how to unlock the true power of vtec too hehehe
come to the bike world, driving is soo car oriented
Commentary FTW!
Looks like LMP vs. GT4....
Imagine if a Honda actually beat a senna on a track lol
Heard the Senna can do 170mph on the front straight...
That would be bonkers, especially if it's happening at the bridge (where they put the digital speed readout for the historics in 2011, and I think ALMS also).
give the honda extra 300hp and you will keep up with him all day and drive past him when hes broke hahaha
sam if only that were true
Thats why i love the Mclaren Senna
Just... Gone 😢
I would take the S2K everyday!
great driving!
Holly shit, you drive well
Lol, you almost got him... 😁
Good laps good laps

Bleh. The Senna, while I'm sure is a monster of engineering, looks ridiculous.
It sure is fast tho
But over to me it started to look actually ok
Nothing like a 100 grand under the hood can't fix 😉
@NutriFIT nutritie si fitnes yep he needs overnight parts from Japan asap 😆
ballfire99 a S2000 will never be able to break and corner like a Senna.
