In the year of 1964, D. Gurney set up the team “All American Racers” (AAR) for the development of domestic racing. 2 years later, he formed the team “Anglo-Americal Racers” to join the F1 fight.
The team machine “EAGLE” was named after the symbol of the country. The Eagle Gurney-Weslake (T1G), installed with a 3000cc Weslake V12 engine, won her first race at Spa in the year of 1967. Gurney made the symbolic winning history to the F1 society that was overwhelmed by the European countries.

The Eagle Mk1, commonly referred to as the Eagle T1G, was a Formula One racing car, designed by Len Terry for Dan Gurney's Anglo American Racers team. The Eagle, introduced for the start of the 1966 Formula One season, is widely regarded as being one of the most beautiful cars ever raced at the top levels of international motorsport[citation needed]. Initially appearing with a 2.7L Coventry Climax inline 4-cylinder engine, the car was designed around a 3.0L Gurney-Weslake V12 which was introduced after its first four races. In the hands of team boss Gurney, the Eagle-Weslake won the 1967 Belgian Grand Prix, making Dan Gurney only the second driver at the time, and one of only three to date, to win a Formula One Grand Prix in a car of their own construction. That win in Belgium still stands as the only F1 victory for a USA-built car.
