The cockpit was about 3 inches wider and the wheelbase 2 inches longer. This attention to personal details made quite an impression on Hulme such that he never raced for another team.<\/p>\n<p>The new car&#8217;s debut came at Road America and by the end of qualifying the McLaren M6As occupied the first two positions on the grid with McLaren on pole and Denny Hulme, occupying 2nd. McLaren&#8217;s time smashed the course record by 10 seconds!. The 3rd place starting car would be a Lola T70 driven by Dan Gurney who could only just manage to stay within 2 secs of the two orange cars. Hulme would go on to win the race as well as the next two, while Bruce McLaren would win at Laguna Seca and Riverside clinching the first Can-Am Championship for McLaren. Only at the last race in Las Vegas would another car than a McLaren take the checkered flag.
