Porsche twin turbo v-8 making 1100hp. Aerodynamics as cool and as innovative as anyone could imagine. What a great series and if any of you are interested the DVD history of the Can-am is a must buy. I miss those days. I would like to add that those can-am cars in their day were signifcantly faster than the formula one cars on the same tracks. I loved it.

I loved the Can Am and the Trans Am series of that era.
