McLaren
Sports Racing Cars -Bruce McLaren's performances as a
Formula 1, endurance, and Can-Am
driver were almost always impressive. But it was the New Zealander's
highly successful career as an innovative carbuilder which
forever etched the McLaren name in the annals of motorsport.
This photo history examines McLaren's legendary endurance
and Can-Am racers beginning with the formation of Bruce McLaren
Racing Limited in 1963, continuing through his tragic death
at the Goodwood circuit in 1970, and finishing with the completion
of the Can-Am series in 1974. Splendid photography
from the archives of Dave Friedman give readers views of the
cars under construction and in action, and candid glimpses
of Bruce McLaren and other personalities associated with the
organization, including long-time teammate Denis Hulme. A
special epilogue brings the story full circle with coverage
of the million-dollar 1998 McLaren F1 "supercar"
in both road and race trim.
