Can Am was the best racing there was. Innovation is an understatement for Jim hall. But, all the chassis and engine combos was just awsome. Big injected v8's.

That Chaparral's wing flapping around is killing me! Great video!
I have the poster signed by Paul Spruell from this race.

I know this is a long shot, but do you happen to have any media from the IMSA races on the same weekend? Either the GT or WSC rounds. I'm particularly fascinated by the GT round as it was a neck-to-neck fight between Panoz and Lotus.

Found this video while trying to find Senna's formula four or ford races. Did not hear or read anywhere what's the track but did race road atlanta in skipbarber on iRacing about 15 years ago and only the second last corner is of what i was racing. Was 3 tents of from world record lap and in a race, my internet connection cut me out while on lead from pole and "never" raced again online.

legendary @ 32:20, he obviously stayed in the gas and didnt lift one iota, this is when racing was about still and you didnt need to be rich to win, now its all electronic aids which helps the lesser skilled .. manual is dead in pro racing , what a joke, you now turn into the apex and floor the throttle, electronics take car of the rest .. btw these cars are more difficult do drive than a set up 'race car' . the race car is faster but still easier to drive because they handle near perfect .etc

Yeah I'm not sure that I can take Lyn St. James talking about what it takes to be a good driver and race in CART. She was, and is, a complete joke that took a seat away from a driver that actually deserved it. I'd rather take racing advice from a potato than her.

That was my first Indy 500! I have attended 33 of them…saw 2 of Mears’ 4 victories, and all 4 of Castroneves’. Always a thrill. Always get goose bumps when I tell of the first time I heard the announcer say “and it’s green!”. This year, I was in one of the garages for a tour, and came face to face with Simon Pagenaud.

So im 33 and ive been a tech since I was 18. Nothing in the world makes me happier than my two year old son. However this is a real close second. Cash for clunkers crushed all the automotive gold over the years. Howany of these tiny beasts were prematurely ended? Craigslist says almost all of them. Thebones thst are left no one wants to sell. A nice 87 pickup of any designatio is like 20g's 😂. My dream car is a 198+ Toyota extended cab long with a 2azfe camry swap.

Can anyone tell me why this excellent documentary could not be named. It was a really good example of how things were back then. The real sportsmanship of guys on opposing teams congratulating each other. Also the totally gratuitous celebration of the female form that went on back then. My sister and I were laughing like hell at the cameramen's antics. The 60s and 70s were another world.
