Now imagine a whole field filled with 20-30 of these absolute monsters. Can-Am must've been one hell of a race to attend
Indeed! :O
It was. I saw them at Mid-Ohio raceway in 1972 and 73. The sound could shake your guts loose. I loved it.
I saw these race as a kid at RIR
I attended a Trans AM race in 1969 at Bryar Park, in N.H. although they were all pony cars, their engines were similar to Can AM what a thrill it was I'll never forget that day.
They were , I attended a few CanAm races at Mosport in the early 70's , unforgettable
These are just beautiful machines. Imagine the exhilaration of discovering this series for the first time.
Those cars look very mean and unique! They also have the brutal sound! Its shaking your chest. That was some cool cars. I wish I could have watched them but I wasn't born yet
Jraybay haha. I had just checked in myself in 1970, so I missed 'em, too. Thank goodness for GFOS and Bozzy for giving us a second opportunity to see these mean machines.👍
Lots of them run in historic series in many countries - you certainly get the full effect there!
They were faster than period time Formula 1 cars ;)
We went to the Can-Am races at Laguna Seca in Monterey CA many times in the 60's, it was heaven for us young boys who were getting into anything with an engine and wheels. We used to get as close to the "corkscrew" as possible so that we could hear the roar of the incredible engines as they blasted through the twisties heading down the hill.
the deep growl of the engine note mixed with the turbo spool on the porsche...omg
the Porsche is by far the worst sounding of the bunch
I guess this where a subjective dispute ensues now right?
I prefer a nice deep, refined growl as opposed to a loud and raspy Brrrap. Sound aside, that Porsche set Can-Am ablaze. What a beast lol
@@spacemartian1944 there wasn't much growl there tho. Also Porsches are notorious for their raspy exhaust when running open and na. It's a difference in how you don't need a free exhaust which creates these insane engine sounds and you don't need the rpm so they can put along with general ease.
It's unusual for the Porsche 917 to be that quiet, it's as if it had mufflers, also it really wasn't opened up much, it would have sounded much different on a long straight at full speed. It may have been the worst sounding car but I'll bet you it was the fastest.
I am very happy that while not alive at the time, that today we have youtube and people like you who share this with the rest of us. Absilute magic of an era gone by. Thank you.
That’s the meanest Mclaren I’ve ever heard and that BRM ❤️❤️❤️
Jared Richardson 8.8 litres of Chevy V8 give it that noise, it too adore it!!
Jake Copus it makes a lovely sound 👍👍👍
Jared Richardson I agree... what an awesome machine!
TheMick26 yep 👍
American big block V-8s ! ! What a great symphony.
Glad to see Mclaren have gone back to the papaya livery this year.
Nice that the Lola driver was flogging it some.
What a beautiful car that T70 is too.
Bozz, I've been watching your vids for quite some time now. I've yet to be disappointed. You really have a knack for capturing the raw essence of these events.
Thank you so much dude! So glad you appreciated them ;D
This is how cars ought to sound
I would love to see the 917/30 being piloted by the McLaren M8 driver!
Mark Donahue.
2:01: Holy shit, what a crazy machine... and what a sound. Amazing footage. Thanks a lot for uploading.
You're welcome mate! Thank you for watching
Nice compilation, Bozzy.👍 These Can-Am cars are all so cool-looking and brutally fast, but my personal fave here has to be the McLaren with the JCB livery. It must be insane to drive that angry beast with so much power and such a short wheelbase. Cheers, bro. Have a great day.
Thank Mick! ;)
Love this! Great job on the video and sound. I got to watch the Can-Am races at Laguna Seca in 72 and 73 and this brings back some great memories
The M8F is one of the best sounding cars ever made..
It IS the best sounding car ever made. Period.
@Marc Gene ... and mine too! The ground is shattering when those fast monsters are passing by... it was an unbelieveable impression for me ! ( 1996 Nürburgring OGP )
@@jamesaron1967 Chevy power baby
A pack of CanAm cars going down the Andretti Straight at Mosport will turn your insides to jelly , the sound is impossible to describe . You have to witness it to really understand it . I'm glad I did , listening to this brings back old memories .
Nothing can beat the sound of a 494 cu in big block chevy.
Spencer Patton while these big CAN-AM V8s do sound epic, I prefer the roar of a Ford 427 FE GT40 race engine at full power
@@IamSnehan so the same? The full bore 427 fe in the gt40 used a very similar exhaust design.
@@jdrok5026 OK, I didn't know that!
@@jdrok5026 thanks for the info mate
@@IamSnehan the 427 uses a 180 degree header design and I think the m8f uses something similar they all sound really similar once they are allowed to breath and get going it gets incredibly hard to tell the differences until the rpm gets going and that's when you start to hear differences as a 427 fe and big block chevy race car won't be hitting 18000 rpm like some formula cars can which that shit sounds fucking insane.
One of the greatest eras of car racing. As I kid I would build large scale slot cars of all my favorite Can-Am cars. Chaparrals were my favorite and all my HO slot cars were Can Am models that I still own. Golden era of unlimited V8 power
Turn up the volume for this one! My dad and I watched some of those cars racing at Riverside Raceway - the Surtees Lola, Chaparral (all of them), and the McLaren. The Porsches weren't around yet. They gave me chills then. They give me chills now! Yes! They sounded magnificent!
Beautiful sound of the engines at full throttle and decelerating and the sound of a straight gear cut transmission wow it's music to some people's ears.
That Mclaren sounds vicious
That 917/30 needs a driver.
It really does, every time I saw it coming down the track , I started shaking my head in disgust.
It's probably worth 10 million as is!
Can-Am races were the best. You don't have the sound of the nice Formula One V-12 at Long Beach. But those big V-8s we're bad ass to the Bone. And those cars accelerated- just accelerated man and stopped on a dime, that was the best.
Never got to see Can-Am. T'was 30 years before I was born.
Beautiful video gotta love those Can-Am monsters but that brutish McLaren M8 is just perfection, the looks, the noise, WOW! The revolutionary Chaparrel as well is just brilliant with that wing as are the rest of them! You've done it again Bozzy, cracking video mate! :D
Thanks a lot my friend!
Yep, the deep bellowing roars of that 8 litre v8 are pure perfection.
I saw them race a Riverside Raceway ( RIR ) as a kid. We would stand on the bridge that spanned the long back straight and watch just how fast they were. They used the " Long Course " layout so that back straight was like a mile long. Many of the cars, like the McLaren would just shake the bridge. The 917/30 just went wooosh and was the fastest car on the track. 1100hp or so. If it didn't break, it won. Penski and Mark Donohue in a fast car were unbeatable. That's why the car was called the "Can-Am Killer" No one else could win.
Bring back old memories from.ladt year. The BRM has a place in my heart because of the kindness of Hepworth family that maintained it towards me.
Also the JCB McLaren M8F is appearantly for sale at Peter Bradfield. If I had the money I will snap it at heartbeat.
These can am cars are a beast an very aggressive an unique and sound like a beast an I enjoy your work keep doing what you doing bozzy
Thanks Greg!
19Bozzy92 u welcome bozzy
I attended many Can Am races at Laguna Seca and Riverside. McLaren, Shadow and then the 917 turbo panzer. Ground shaking!!!!!
Greatest Racing Series ever. Can Am.
Goodwood at beast mode)
Been best part of 54 years since I saw John Surtees in a Lola T70. Lush!
Hi! I saw them in Trois-Rivières Grand-Prix (Québec, Canada) in the mid-70's. To run the Can-Am Serie on the city-streets race track, they had to make a different (longer) track. While we were used to see Atlantic Formula (with Gilles Villeneuve driving it, between others...) making the former path in 1min 10/ 1min 15, even with the longer track, Can-Am would run in about ... 1min... Simple, we would see one passing in front of us and, just having the time to turn our head back on the other side, they would be passing again! Never saw much powerful racing cars!! The sound of the engines was amazing!
When machines were truly monsters and the men who drove them didn't know it. There's a couple of drifts that sound like sprints cars...of course because of those Chevy engines...so cool
this series had so much potential, sad that it's dead
It's really not sad that it's dead. Good things with long lives turn into bad things that don't die. Case in point, modern 2015-2020 F1
SAVAGE TUNER f1’s in a better place now, it’s still intriguing
@@brandonhusereau1966 Is it though
@@brandonhusereau1966 not at all
@@savagetuner2404 so true. Still would love to see that exact same sht today in a racing series. F1 is complaining about spectator loss, I would bet my life on that these cars would fill any arena today.
Great to see and hear, thanks.
The McLaren is one wicked sounding and looking car. This video doesn't do justice to the thunder and roar this car is capable of.
Yeah at Road America in Wisconsin they bring like 3 or 4 or them and you can hear them from the other side of the track.
Hope I get to hear one in real life.
For those who never saw Can/Am racing, you really missed it.
God that BRM gives me chills. Pure Audio porn!
Bloody great thanks Bozzy ...geez those engines
I could watch these cars all day., the 1960's and 1970's was the golden age of racing.
The soul of modern day racing is dead, with the PlayStation cars and their lifeless sounding engines.
Totally my words. Look what a joke F1 has become (and compare for example the sound of late 80 v6 turbos vs those of today). And then they complain about loss of spectators. F1 is as unfascinating as it can get (ok formula E is even worse ofc lol!). I would bet my life on that these cars would fill any arena today.
Man that porsche sounds incredible
I miss group 7 racing
Best of the Best......
0:30 the best looking Can Am ever; and the fastest.
That Can-Am McLaren is a fooking monster.................
Hammers of the Gods!
Its been said that these Can-Am cars of the 70's were faster than the F1 cars of the year 1973 at Spa.
I love Can Am cars. They are so wacky.
Sensational😎👌
Can Am's are the baddest Cars ever conceived in their time. no rules!
Boy, you should have heard them downshifting going into Canadian Corners at Road America and then power out of the corner. Canadian Corners was a sharp turn in a valley coming off of the longest straight of the course.
The driver of the orange McLaren M8F means business.
These stock block monsters still sound better than todays crop of race cars, especially the modern F1 cars.
Bring back the V10 3.5 liter screamers...20,000 rpm.
Nah
I really wish they brought back can am.
Awesome sights and sounds!
I got to see an m8f in person at a Road Atlanta vintage race, i could fit my fist into the intake stack.
Can am was basically just an old version of LS swapping all the race cars.
When they LS swapping a Tesla?
These just look like RACE CARS!!!!!...and sound like Monsters.....Beautiful engineering.🐈👍 We're these Class C cars?...or before that?...
FIA Group 7, I think it was. Way before Group C. Group 6 was the 70s prototype class with all the open cars, nothing like the same insanity though.
Richard Dastardly tyvm....still learning...awesome cars.
No worries :) there's some spectacular cars you've probably not discovered yet, I'm almost jealous! especially the late 60s & the 70s, quite bonkers. Pop up to Goodwood FoS sometime, it's well worth it even if you've only got a passing interest in cars.
sarah sarah Group C (and IMSA) were supposed to be slower than these because they limited how much fuel they could use per race. Didn’t work! Then in 1992 Group C was pretty much dead because they switched to using F1 car engines. IMSA was available for a lot of the Ex-group C cars so you can see more of them going into the 90’s
Can-Am cars. Fastest race cars on the planet during the period.
LOVE These cars! Unfortunately at Goodwood they BARELY get to stretch thier legs. Poor Porsche 917K couldn't get spooled up. BRM sounded a little rowdy. Chapparal's cool. BTW, is that #46 Lola an ex-Surtees car? TY for sharing these brilliant cars!
Well, it's a hillclimb, neat, precise driving is the way to go faster, so yeah, it is not possible to exploit the power advantage.
Also, most of the cars were just being demonstrated, with the exception of the McLaren M8C with the JCB logos on, if I remember correctly, that's competing in the shootout.
And yes, the #46 Lola is an ex-John Surtees car, actually involved in a racing accident at the Goodwood Revival a few months ago, it crashed into an ex-Graham Hill Ford GT40 when both cars and their drivers were caught unaware of an oil spill on track during the qualifying session. Amazingly, both cars were quickly mended for the race the next day, with no trace of them being damaged. The GT40 had other problem that led to an early retirement, but the Lola fought back from the back of the grid to finish 4th!
There are no drivers left today that are qualified or have the balls to drive these cars to their maximum limits ....... any CAN-AM driver of the day or a driver like Gilles Villeneuve that pushed a racecar to it's absolute limit are who you want to see in these cars ............
😍 eargasm
Non oso immaginare sentire 20-25 Can-Am che gareggiano tutte insime :Q___
I came so many times while watching this that I'm now on dialysis afte suffering kidney failure from lack of electrolytes
Love all your videos
In 50 years they wouldn't believe those were real engine sounds.
Witnessed these monsters running around Riverside Raceway back in the day. NOTHING can match the excitement of a pack of these things coming around turn 9 to take the green flag!
Fabulous, those old V-8s! The Porsche is a monster, of course, but the sound just isn't there...
he never floored it, he lifted the throttle everytime the turbos started to spooling up... most powerfull race car of all time on this small track is pretty sure tricky to drive... just imagine the boost comes in and over 1000hp terror the rear tires... in a unpayable museumscar...
@@nagmashot most powerful ever maybe can am car sure. But many engines now without turbos will bury that Porsche engine.
@@jdrok5026 no race engine in Terms of HP. .. in driveabilty yes but not in Terms of horsepower. .. since this Porsche race car was no other race car that under its race Regulation produce more power
@@nagmashot it had turbos tho and many other engines are regulated to lower power and na or turbos low boost. 1500 hp isn't a lot for a turbo 3.0l v12 that's not even much for a 2.0l built right in a 4 cylinder config just because it's the only one that's been taken that high outside of drag doesn't mean it would hang with other engines if they got boost.
@@jdrok5026 totaly dumb comment.... it is not much? It is only the most powerfull ever race engine used in curcuit racing. .. today are many Turbo race engine used... still no race Serie get close to 1500hp
Why was there never the idea to turn those velocity stacks into the wind for some ram air effect? Being straight up, they are reducing the air pressure due to the Bernoulli effect.
Bring back this category!
Nice video!!!
Thanks!
Phenomenal video
494 cu inch Chevrolet Big Block. Our European brethren call that 8.0.litre. We just call it Chevy big block in a 4500 Silverado
The funny thing is that it is a weak engine by Can Am Standards. It's the children's version. Men drive a 5.3 litre Flat 12 twin turbo with 1500hp. You know the rule. Displacement is nice but boost it better. And if you combine an engine, that in its naturally aspirated firm would give the V8s a good run for their money, with Turbos you get a weapon and the most powerful racecar of all time, that also set the fastest racing lap average of all time. No car ever clocked a higher average speed over one in lap in any race ever. This record stands for nearly 50 years now and it will never be broken.
@jonny j Well today rules dictate speed not the limit of technology. And without those rules it would be the limits of humans. If you would combine racecar history's greatest achievements with each other, an LMP1 Hybrid Diesel engine, with AWD, Groundeffect Aero and all that no human would be able to drive it. Like group B, to fast for human reflexes.
The number 8 McLaren driven by Andy Newell has an 8.8 litre aluminum block chevy engine in it.
The only American race cars that were faster than their current F-1 counterparts.
Like stomachs with four wheels...
When the 917 is coasting near the top of the hill about 3:41...is that howl the turbo spinning down or is it gear whine from the transmission or rear end? I honestly can't tell.
i think i'd involuntarily shit my pants if i had to drive any of these
Love your videos!
Gold racing days.
Can you show us car names in vids next time?
That Porshe have turbo?sounds like that:)
Yep, one of the first turbo racing cars.
On the video they sound great, in real life they just burst your eardrums.
Imagine 30 of them on the track... At least some of the earthquakes in the world must have been caused by them
If I sold hay and straw, I would want the straw bale concession for next year...
wow
I'll take the M8F for Christmas please.
2nd highest power to weight ratio ever, only behind the Hennessy venom
I saw Penske Turbo-Panzers race at Riverside and win.
❤️❤️❤️MCLAREN❤️❤️❤️
None were at full song...imagine them all on the the Sarthe.
Aw man I wish there was a Lamborghini Murra can am car
I’m a devout atheist…but I kept saying Jesus Christ.
Cool vid
Whoever is driving the 917/30 is scared to hold the gas pedal untill the turbos spin up. As he should be. 1560hp and 1850 lbs. Still the reigning king of racing power. The closest racer to it was the Brabham/BMW F1 car at 1480hp, which had it's wastegates welded shut for qualifying.
If he's scared, he needs to let someone else drive.
@@motocrossriders2002 He needs to let the M8F driver have a go at it. He'd thrash that thing no matter how much it's worth.
@@jeremiahd2417 So would I.
It's too bad none of them raced the Hillclimb challenge, then we see and hear them driven in anger and at full song.
J'aime🏁🏁
I know this is random, but who else feels like the car in 0:16 kinda reminds your of a cat?
You see BRM had a good engine,, a Chev!!
But Bruce had alloy big blocks
and when they introduced fuel injection
which is the red car ?
Lola
1970 at Mosport Canada World Endurance racing faster Porsche 917 and faster than F1 same year they were fast
So in theory a well optioned Silverado could give these a run for their money ?
Thanks Porsche for destroying Can Am.
