The McLaren is the other F1 Powertrack car and its also a chubby interpretation of the real thing. The real car is very flat but obviously the Powertrack version is hamsterised to fit it all in.
The McLaren was released in the UK as PT-102 and was only ever available in faux Marlboro colours of reddy-orange/white. In the states though, the car was redone completely. Was cigarette advertising on kids toys outlawed then?
The US car was blue, with yellow detailing and not marketed as 'McLaren' at all. Instead, it was clumsily titled 'M-26 Formula 1'
There are few variations of this car other than that though I vaguely remember different drivers helmets may have been provided depending on stock - this characteristic also applied to all the open topped cars, standard for this car on both sides of the Atlantic are a black helmet.
The US Positraction prototype was pretty lurid and mirrored the Penske livery that Matchbox were associated with at the time. This car is probably none existent - see Positraction cars section later.
