Or at least damn few rules. The bodywork had to enclose the wheels and there had to be something that loosely resembled a passenger seat--if your passenger was a badly misshapen human or perhaps a lab monkey. Otherwise, set your racing mind free. No limits to engine options or output, no restrictions on aerodynamic aids or body shape. It was\u003cb\u003e as close to unrestricted road racing as racing had ever gotten\u003c\/b\u003e or would ever get again. And it was fantastic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From its introduction in 1966 to the end of its classic period in 1974, North America's Can-Am series was the most exciting, technologically advanced, and\u003cb\u003e star-studded racing series \u003c\/b\u003eof the day. Its essentially \u003cb\u003erules-free formula attracted everyone\u003c\/b\u003e from crazed backyard engineers to specialists like McLaren, Chaparral, Shadow, and Lola to manufacturers like Ford, Ferrari, Chevrolet, and Porsche. Top drivers including Mario Andretti, Jackie Stewart, Parnelli Jones, and Bruce McLaren competed on tracks across the US and Canada.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCan-Am 50th Anniversary\u003c\/i\u003e offers a heavily illustrated look back at what is arguably the greatest race series ever to grace the roadracing circuits of North America. \u003cb\u003ePhotographer Pete Biro\u003c\/b\u003e was Goodyear Tire’s official photographer and followed the series throughout the entire run from 1966-'74. The vast majority of the book’s images are \u003cb\u003eunpublished \u003c\/b\u003eor long out of circulation. Biro brings his unique perspective and his close relationship with the drivers, team owners, and constructors to bear on the captions while former \u003ci\u003eAutoWeek\u003c\/i\u003e editor George Levy provides an exciting text reflecting the thrill of Can-Am racing. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Motorbooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44892462940389,"sku":"NP9780760350218","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/fef2565e-da74-4c0c-aa90-ab02013128eb.jpg?v=1767844881","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/canam-50th-anniversary-isbn-9780760350218","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
