A great selection of Bruce McLaren’s race cars headlined the second day of the Goodwood Revival 2015, held 12th September at the Goodwood Motor Circuit in England. The evocative collection of cars associated with McLaren\u2019s career lapped the Circuit, recalling a career that encompassed four grands prix wins as well as victory in the 1966 Le Mans 24 Hours.<\/p>\n

“Bruce McLaren was a talented engineer and a world class racing driver,” said Lord March at the start of his tribute to the great New Zealander “He was highly-skilled, meticulous and always fun.”<\/p>\n

The mighty sports racers that carried his name dominated the Can-Am series and an example of these was included in a line-up that ranged from Formula One Cooper-Climax to the Aston Martin Projects 212 and 214; Ford GT40 to McLaren\u2019s own prototype road car, the M6GT.<\/p>\n

Bruce\u2019s daughter Amanda and sister Jan joined a host of Bruce\u2019s friends and colleagues on the grid, such as legendary McLaren designer Gordon Coppuck and forthright team manager Alastair Caldwell. It was a fitting tribute to one of the sport\u2019s most significant figures.<\/p>\n

Saturday also featured a full programme of seven races with part one of the St Mary\u2019s Trophy, for 1960s saloons, one of the most frenetic ever witnessed at a Goodwood Revival.<\/p>\n

Nine times Le Mans winner Tom Kristensen blasted through the field from the back of the grid in his mighty Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt to overtake a hectic three-way battle that had been trading places for the lead. The most evocative race of the day must, though, have been the Lavant Cup that, this year, was held for drum-braked Ferrari sports prototypes of the 1950s and which was won by James Cottingham\u2019s 500 TRC from 1957.<\/p>\n
