John McIntyre (born 10 March 1977) is a New Zealand racecar driver who competes in the V8SuperTourer championship and is a co-driver for Ford Performance Racing in the V8 Supercar Series at Sandown and Bathurst.
Hawke's Bay-born John McIntyre started in the NZV8s (aka New Zealand V8 Touring Cars) in 1999.
In 2006 he debuted his own team John McIntyre Racing and won the 2006–07 championship. McIntyre and his team successfully defended their championship title in the 2007-08 season, proving themselves a dominant force in New Zealand motorsport.
McIntyre wrapped up his competition in the NZV8s with a final championship title in 2011 (http://www.v8.co.nz/news-3900/mcintyre-takes-2011-title-in-nz-v8-champs) before moving to the then-new V8SuperTourers.
