McLaren M20

Automobiles

The McLaren M20 was a sports prototype that McLaren developed for the 1972 season of the Canadian-American Challenge Cup. It replaced the M8F and became the last Can-Am design McLaren created before the team left the series after failing to win the 1972 title. Private teams kept entering M20s until the championship was cancelled at the end of 1974. Gordon Coppuck and Tyler Alexander gave it two radiators, one on each side of the cockpit, so hot air no longer passed over the driver, and added an adjustable front airfoil. A 509 cubic inch Chevrolet V8 of about 750 horsepower powered it, and Denny Hulme won two races in 1972, with Scooter Patrick winning in 1974.
