I photographed this car on the straight between Priory and Brooklands corners during a practice session for the AT & T Istel Steigenberger Supersports Cup race at the Christie's International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1992.
It's Wido Roessler driving the Derichs Rennwagen 1967 McLaren M1C, chassis M1C-40-11, with a small-block Chevrolet 4,992cc V8 engine. The M1C was a customer car built to compete in the CanAm series in Canada and the USA, and M1C-40-11 was originally supplied to Carl Haas. It later passed to Ralph Treischman and then Jim Phillips before spending 14 years in Harrah's Museum then coming back to the UK.
