The M6B was built by Bruce McLaren Motor Racing (now known as McLaren) in the late 1960s. Racing in various Can-Am championships across the globe, the M6B made waves in Australia with John Harvey winning back-to-back Australian Sports Car Championships in a M6B in 1971 and 1972. The MB6 heading to Adelaide was used to build the prototype M6 GT by Bruce McLaren before being converted back to a Can-Am car and will be driven by George Vidovic at the 2025 Repco Adelaide Motorsport Festival.
Can-Am is remembered as one of the most popular and wild motorsport categories, with the rulebook allowing for technical freedoms which resulted in unique car designs and powerful engines.
The MB6 will be on track alongside the trio of Shadow Can-Am cars coming from England – the MKI Mosport, MKI Prototype and MKIII – which make their Australian debut in Adelaide after starring at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed.
The 2025 Repco Adelaide Motorsport Festival will once again feature various categories, ranging from Formula 1 cars, V8 Supercars, sportscars, touring cars, motorbikes and more with the action non-stop without a break in track activity at any stage of the day. Off track there will be car displays, kids' zones, bars and food trucks, exhibitors and traders, activations and more, in a picnic in the park setting.
Tickets are on sale now with weekend tickets and single-day tickets available, in addition to tickets to the Toyota Gazoo Racing Garden and VIP Suite hospitality offerings.
