Massive-engined Can-Am monsters take over Goodwood

Just like their engines, the anticipation for the Can-Am demo at the 81st Members' Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport was huge. When they finally hit the Goodwood Motor Circuit, they did not disappoint. With a field of Shadow, McLaren and Porsche, amongst others, and engines up to a whopping 11-litres, the noise was always going to biblical.
We had Jackie Oliver in his title-winning 1974 Shadow DN4 driving alongside Tom Kristensen in the Shadow DN4B. We had the flame-spitting Ford Open Sports prepared by Alan Mann Racing and these weren't even the most eye-catching.
That orange Mk1 Shadow even has a radiator in that massive wing.
What a series. What a time. What a demo. If you managed to see them in person, you'll understand why we were so excited for this. If you didn't manage to see it, here is the full Sunday Can-Am for you all. Sit back and enjoy.

How all of that torque didn’t spin the planet is beyond me

@daledavies2334 21 день назад

During the hay days the engines were all about 494 cubic inches. With the short wheel base they all had and the torque available then they were a handfull. Now with another 3 liters od displacement they must be a real handfull. The first year of the turbocharged Porsche 917 30K cars I was a corner marshal on turn 1 at the Edmonton International Speedway. Team Penske and Donohue had the 5.4l engines first. Jody Scheckter practiced Friday and Saturday using a 5.0l engine. Saturday evening the Porsche mechanics were switching out engines for the race. Spoke in German but swore in English. Sunday morning they came out for practice and warmup and Jody had a bit of trouble keeping it straight exiting Corner 1. With the increased displacement and the extra torque, he had to feel out where he could get into the throttle. If I remember right he ended up in the wheat field for a bit. About all you could see was the roll bar and wheat getting tossed into the air.

Wow, watching these cars on this track takes me back! I'm from Southern California, USA. When I was a kid there used to be a racetrack in SoCal called Riverside Raceway, and I got to go see the Can Am's racing one year back in the 60's. I used to watch car racing from Riverside Raceway on television aired by Wide World of Sports in the United States.

Re: your thumbnail. I'm not aware of an 11-liter engine that ran in the Can-Am series. The largest displacement engine I ever heard of was 8.0 and 8.3 liter (488 and 506 cubic inches, respectively) engines that McLaren ultimately ran in an attempt to keep pace with the turbocharged Porsches.

@kyle381000 21 день назад

I was at the 1973 Mosport Can-Am season opener. Penske showed up with the 917-30 driven by Donohue, and Vasek Polak showed up with a 917-10 driven by Scheckter. There were about 5-6 other privately entered 917-10s driven by well known drivers, but Donohue and Scheckter were the class of the field and were on the front row. At the start, Donohue and Scheckter just up and disappeared. It was fantastic to watch. Unfortunately, they were so much faster than everyone else that they caught a backmarker during the 4th lap (of a 2.5 mile course). There was a collision and Donohue got the worst of it, but still made it back to the pits and then continue on. It was among my favourite memories despite my beloved McLarens not being there anymore.

You can also identify it as a 917/30 by the nose having rounded corners at its lowest point. Some folks called this a 917/20 as it's the link between the 917/10 and 917/30, but that's incorrect as I understand that the 917/20 was the snub nose car that ran at Le Mans in 1971 dubbed the pink pig, this crashed during the race due to brake failure when Reinhold Joest was driving it .
