Here's a site someone sent me a link to. Nice footage of the Lola T310 driven by Bobby Rahal at the Monterey Historics last year. There was a pace lap crash in the corkscrew which they caught on their cameras.

VERY cool stuff.......my buddies older brother took him & I to the 1971 Can Am race at Mosport, I LOVED it....in 1971 I was 9 yrs old and I will never forget it.....Denny Hulme won it, Peter Revson second....man....the ROAR & the smell of those big V8s, those huge rear tires, all the hippies trippin' out in the woods....wow!, what an experience for a 9 yr old......to this day I have never seen so many people at the track.....

Man... between you and Canepa I've spent an hour watching old Can-Am videos

I have to share this retrospective on the baddest Can-Am car of them all the 917

A little history on the 917 for those who aren't familiar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche_917)
