The Porsche 917\/30<\/a>\u00a0was a derivative of\u00a0the 917\/10<\/a>\u00a0and it was the first real turbocharged racing car developed to compete in the Can-Am series. McLaren had dominated for a number of years with big V8s and Porsche made the commitment to go forward with a full aerodynamic race car that had lots of downforce \u2013 and to use a turbocharged engine that would produce more than 1200 horsepower.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Because of the dominance of these cars in Can-Am racing, the series experienced a decline in popularity and disappointed many fans within the United States, given the sheer superiority of the 917\/30 on the tracks.<\/p>\n
