1981 March 817 Can-Am

This race car was driven by Teo Fabi in the 1981 CAN-AM Series. The car was a Budweiser sponsored Newman Racing Team Car. It took two first place finishes, four pole positions and two fastest race laps. The car was crashed after it took its forth pole position. It was then sent back to March for a complete rebuild. This car took a major part in Teo Fabi taking a second in the Drivers Championship and led all drivers in money earnings.

David Nikolas now campaigns this classic racing car in the HSR (Historic Sportscar Racing) Thundersports series. This is a series that races historic vehicles from various race classes throughout history. For more details on these events please visit the HSR website at www.hsrrace.com

The car is currently in its Teo Fabi Budweiser racing paint scheme. We are currently looking for sponsorship and are willing to alter the appearance of the car to reflect our new sponsors. The car races in a series that hits all the major road racing tracks and draws spectatorship in the hundreds of thousands on a yearly basis. Call us at 248-682-7755 to discuss sponsoring this race car.
