Gus Hutchinson was born in Atlanta, Georgia but moved to Dallas Texas. Hutchison was the US Formula B champion in 1967, with a Lotus 41B, winning each of the first seven races he entered. Late in 1969, he bought the ex-Jacky Ickx Brabham BT26 for a successful 1970 season of SCCA Continental racing and also took the car to Watkins Glen for that year's US GP, crashing out on the 21st lap.
Gus was then a regular competitor in the early seventies in the L & M F5000 series with both Lola and March chassis.
