What’s more exciting than bringing an old car back to life? How about starting up an F5000 race car for the first time in 25 years?

In case that's not enough, this isn't just any F5000 racer, it's the championship-winning 1971 McLaren M10B driven by David Hobbs.

The car now resides within the Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum.
