History

John McIntyre Racing was formed in 2006 by owner-driver John McIntyre. The team enjoyed success in the 2006–07 NZV8 series, winning the championship in their first season. JMR made it two in a row when they won the 2007–08 NZV8 series for the second time.

For 2012, JMR moved to the new SuperTourer championship. The team expanded to two cars, with experienced V8 Supercars driver Steven Richards driving the #556 (later #70).

For 2013, the second license was sold to driver Dominic Storey.
