love this wobbly beasts, scary how close some people sit next to the racetrack, nice to see the differences between 70´s and today xD thanks for sharing! does someone know how much these cars weigh and how much power they got aprox. TY
I was there rooting for Donahue. I was 9, loved it! Such an amazing series back then. The infield was amazing looking back, tons of pony cars all supporting their manufacturers and drivers. Camaro Z28s, Boss 302 Mustangs, Javelins, Pontiac Trans Ams, Cudas etc etc, everywhere. The good ol days.
What happened to motorsport,, soon electric cars,, nobody will watch it. Australia does Touring car masters better than any country. you want to see mustangs, camaro,s and javlins go head to head with aussie muscle cars pre 1975 check it out.
This is the definition of I wish I was there.
Beautiful. Absolutely Beautiful. The true Golden Era of American Muscle N' Pony Cars.
We need to see legacy series like this supported by manufacturers
Parnelli Jone? Mark Donohue? This field was loaded!
I was at this race. I live 20 minutes from Laguna Seca Carmel Valley.

The only greater sound Than an American V8 is a cosworth DFV superb.
Great video! I love the history of this series, such great drivers.
Nostalgic history for some!🤙
Look at ALL those people on the hill sides!!
Trans Am > NASCAR
Hey, I just drove a 2005 Mustang in Laguna Seca…in GT PSP. Not the same car but they’re both 2+2 RWD V8-powered cars. 🤷♂️
Wow, thank you for this clip! And so many people around the track!
Was this incident where Posey put Revson out of the race the reason for the Revson/Posey brief fight?
Fantastic archive footage. Thanks Trans Am.
The number 6 AMC is owned and raced today by Bruce Canepa.
My Main Man Sam Posey and that Wicked looking Challenger.
Who was the narrator? He is very familiar and I am brain cramping on his name.
Great footage. Thank you. Anything available with Australian Ford racer, Allan Moffat? He came over to the U.S. and did a season in 69 or 70?
Wonderful. I wasn't born yet in 1970, and I'm not American, yet I recognised all of those cars and drivers
Man that was sweet to watch, TY for the clip TransAm.
Cool

seethe. LMDh and Hypercar have brought massive prototype fields for the first time in years. GT3 is absurdly healthy and TA2 is rapidly growing.
