Classic Days 2025, circuit de
Nevers Magny-Cours (Nièvre), 27 april 2025
-
A nice surprise at the 2025 Classic Days on the Nevers Magny-Cours
circuit: the presence of the #1 Sbarro CanAm. The rules of the
CanAm formula were very simple: no rules! All you needed was two
seats and wheels wrapped around the bodywork. The result was some
spectacular cars, with, in the case of Sbarro, a spoiler
integrated into the bodywork, giving it that spatula look. The Sbarro CanAm spatula #1 in the pits on Saturday

The cockpit is very simple. The seats are moulded
in fibreglass, as is the bodywork. The steering wheel is on
the right, as is the gear lever. (photography Philippe

The rear mid-engine is a Chevrolet V8 (Dart)
