Photo Gallery «Technology in race cars (16): Chaparral 2E Can-Am from 1966 - High-Decker»
In 1966, it was Chaparral, not Red Bull, that gave it wings. In that year, the Texan racing car manufacturer unleashed the Can-Am 2E onto North America's race tracks. The experimental team led by engineer and racing driver Jim Hall had already caused a stir with the predecessor models 2A to 2C, but the automotive alchemists literally went one better with the 2E. Episode 16 of the series "Technology in a racing car" deals with the Chaparral 2E and shows the winged racing car in many historic pictures.
