Goodwood is thrilled to announce that the 81st Members’ Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport will host an exhilarating on-track demonstration to celebrate the Canadian-American Challenge Cup.
Set to be the loudest and most breathtaking demonstration ever held at the Goodwood Motor Circuit, the celebration will host the greatest collection of Can-Am racing cars from 1966 to 1974. In the spotlight will be some of Can-Am’s most iconic vehicles from the likes of the McLaren, Shadow and Porsche – three of the most successful marques in Can-Am’s brief but spectacular history.
Earning the nickname ‘unlimited’, the Can-Am Cup paved the way for innovation as some of the most powerful sports cars from the 1960s and ‘70s went head-to-head in a race with little to no restrictions on engine capacities. The racing series was joined by some of the world’s most renowned drivers, including Bruce McLaren – who took pole position in 1967 and 1969 – Denny Hulme, Sir Jackie Stewart, Mario Andretti and Mark Donohue, who in 1973 raced the Porsche 917/30.
Welcoming a fleet of up to 25 iconic Can-Am speedsters, the demonstration will take place across the weekend and sit alongside the full race schedule yet to be announced for the 81st Members’ Meeting.
