History

Winthrop-Cozworth engines (1970-1981)

Scotian racing driver Glenn MacGregor founded MacGregor Racing in 1970 to participate in Astyrian F1 after a racing injury made him unable to drive competitively. Their first entry yielded only a 4th place finish, when fellow Aswickan team MSDT took the Constructors' Championship. However, they managed to claim their first win at the 1973 Nikolian Grand Prix. MacGregor Racing steadily improved until they were able to claim their first championship in 1974 in the MacGregor MG5, piloted by < name >.

In 1975, Glenn MacGregor reorganized the company, creating MacGregor Cars in 1975. Under this new organization, MacGregor F1 was created to continue its participation in the sport, receiving its funds from sales of the road car division. In 1977, MacGregor took the Drivers' Championship with Aswickan driver Jimmy Lunt. However, they were unable to claim the Constructors' Championship that year, taking 2nd place behind Phaeton.
