GTP WTAC Week 81 : 1970 Can-Am Revisit
*** The Can-Am Championship (Canadian-American) was an SCCA series racing event held in these two North American countries. In 1970, the entrants was a very popular race series with both racers and their manufacturers, but also with the competitors. They famous for having little to no restrictions on the automobiles and that resulted in simply outrageous track-eating machines (not unlike the WRC's Group B in the mid-80s). These two cars were both scheduled to compete against one another in the 1970 Can-Am, but two fatal crashes forced Toyota to pull it's Toyota 7 open-cockpit racer before the series even started. The Chaparral 2J was plagued with mechanical problems in almost every race, but it usually held the pole-position due to it's being much faster than all the other others cars (due to it's second engine that sucked the air out from underneath the car). 'The Vacuum Cleaner' was, and still is, the common name that people use when referring to the Chaparral 2J. ***
