This page explores the wild and revolutionary history of the Canadian-American Challenge Cup; better known as “Can-Am.”

Running from 1966 to 1974 in its original form, and later revived from 1977 to 1987, Can-Am became a symbol of unrestrained engineering freedom. It was an era when designers and drivers alike chased pure speed without limits; birthing some of the most powerful and imaginative machines ever built. To capture that spirit, we’ve divided the story into its indivual championship years.
