A car I swore I would never drive; Shadow Mk1 at Road America

Visor cam footage from Jim Bartel’s insane 1970 Shadow Mk1 Can Am car; this has to be the craziest car I’ve ever driven. Road America 2022 with the car next up on grid, a last minute commitment for the scheduled driver left me with the invite to hop in (20 minutes before the session....) With the car designer, Trevor Harris there in person to watch the car run, I dubiously accepted. What a car, I’m glad I accepted! Not pushing, but allow me to give you an insight into driving the Can Am legend, as piloted by George Follmer. First race the car ever finished and its first class win! #shadowcanam #shadow #roadamerica #canam #v8 #georgefollmer #kyletilley #shadowmk1 #motul #historicracing #racecar
