The McLaren M10-B was raced by many contenders for the Formula 5000 championship. This car is the only car to twice win the Formula 5000 championship, in 1970 and again in 1971. Originally owned by the partnership of Malcolm Starr and Carl Hogan, John Connor was the driver for the 1970 Continental Series, and finished first at Riverside, California; Seattle; Road America in Wisconsin; and the Canadian Ste. Jovite to win the championship. In 1971, with David Hobbs driving, this car again won at Seattle and Road America, the Laguna California SCCA, at Edmonton, Canada, and at Lime Rock, Connecticut.
This car is powered by a 500-horsepower Chevrolet 'small block' V-8, and with its monocoque body weighing only 1,500 pounds, it is capable of reaching over 200 MPH on a straight.
