EDITORS COMMENTS
In this thrilling snapshot from the annals of motor racing history, Earl Jones of the Charles Hayes Racing team skillfully maneuvers his McLaren Elva Mk II Chevrolet through a turn during the Can-Am race at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park on September 24, 1966. The iconic Canadian track, then known as Mosport, played host to some of the most exciting and competitive races of the Can-Am series, which drew the world's best drivers and most advanced sports cars. Jones, a Canadian racing legend, was a force to be reckoned with on the track. His McLaren Elva Mk II, powered by a mighty Chevrolet engine, was one of the most formidable machines in the series. The Elva's sleek, open-cockpit design and aerodynamic bodywork were a sight to behold, and its raw power and handling capabilities made it a favorite among fans and competitors alike. The Can-Am series was known for its high-speed, high-stakes racing, and the Mosport race of 1966 was no exception. With its long, sweeping turns and challenging elevation changes, the track presented a formidable challenge to even the most experienced drivers. Jones, however, seemed to relish the challenge, expertly navigating the twists and turns of the course with a grace and finesse that belied the raw power of his machine. As he roars through this turn, Jones' intense focus is evident in his determined expression and clenched jaw. The crowd, gathered just beyond the safety barriers, watches in awe as he pushes his McLaren to the limit, the roar of the Chevrolet engine echoing through the trees. This moment captures the essence of Can-Am racing at its finest: a blend of raw power, skill, and excitement that continues to captivate motor racing fans to this day.
