The McLaren Technology Center has become synonymous with the British company and Jodie Kidd recently had the opportunity to tour the facility with none other than McLaren Racing boss Zak Brown.
Brown was featured in a previous episode of the Kidd in a Sweet Shop series on YouTube, showcasing his personal F1 car collection. In this video he gives us a detailed tour of the collection of road and racing cars in the MTC. To call it amazing would be an understatement.
The tour begins with the 720S GTX before heading to some of the British automaker’s famous racing cars, including the Papaya Orange Can Am racing car, which is equipped with a Chevrolet V8. The 1974 Indy 500 from McLaren is parked next to this racing car. Several other classic racing cars are featured, including an F1 car driven by James Hunt.

There are also a variety of McLaren F1s, including an original XP5 F1 prototype, an F1 LM, an F1 GTR with Gulf livery, and the Le Mans winner Ueno Clinic F1 GTR, which Brown says is the most expensive single car in the collection.
A number of newer Formula 1 cars are also available, including cars from Mika Häkkinen, Kimi Raikkonen, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button.
The tour concludes with an overview of the company’s remarkable trophy cabinet, largely from Formula 1.
