The Can-Am 40th Anniversary Celebration
Road America, Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin
Heavy braking!

Peter Revson drove this Lola T-163 Chevrolet in the 1969 Can-Am championship.  Revson was heir to the Revlon fortune.  He went to win the '71 title driving for McLaren. 

The T-163 could not keep up with the McLarens in '69.  The Lola's rear wing is mounted to the rear axle and therefore moves independently of the body making for a unique visual experience when the car is in motion.  Strut-mounted wings were banned after '69 due to safety concerns after multiple failures on Formula One cars.
