- t ~ The word from Mospurt is that Mark Donobue is the man to beat ini this year's Can. Arn. Mark Donohue, Capt. Nice, will be unveiling bis new Iong-tailed Porsche, painted in the familiar blue and gold Sunoco colours. at the Labatt's.BIue Can-Amn at Mosport Park, lune 8-10. The car is a radical change fromn the Penske Porsche of last vear wbich won the series with the help of George Foilîmer. Mark lias said about the new car "the only thing that's the sanie is the rear wing". He also said "It' a dif- ferent approach. It's going to have a long tail, like a Le- Mans car. 'Me wing wiII stay at about the samie position as on last year's car, but the tail will corne underneath it"". Last year's opener was very coîitroversial as race ex- perts and enthusiasts alike (including yours truîy) ex- pressed opinions on the new turbo-charged car and won- dered whether it would Iast the race. Well. when the race got iînder way it looked like no one would ever catch Donohue until a valve in the turbo-charger stuck forcing him into the pits. One squirt of oil was ail that was nee- ded to get himi back into the race, and Mark was back chasing after Revson and Hulme. He pushed Revson so liard Revson blew bis engine two laps from the finish, and Hulme took the checkered flag with Donohue brea- thing bis exhaust.. This year Donohue says lie will have "substantially more power. One thousand for the race as well as prac- tice. The way Porsche looks at it, wliat ever you caîî get from the engines, you should be able to get consistently ail the time". Last year, Donohue was using over a thousand horse- power to quaîify, but turning down the boost 0o1 his tur- bo-chargers to use only 900 for races. By using less hor- sepower, hie was hoping for reliability.

"I expect it wiH lie better than last year's cars,"'said Donobue, "but tbere's always thse possibifity that it won't be." He bas -a great respect for the car lie belped develop Iast season. "Tbe safest bet of anybody today - right at tbis moment - would be to go witb last year's cars. Witb our kind of preparation, tbat would be the way to go. But tbat's not tbe way Porsche looks at it." "We at Porsche are trying to improve, and tbat's wby we are coming witb a new car to Mosport. 1 know that Rinzler's guys will be tougb, because tbey bave avery proven product. We know exactly wbat that car can do. It's a verv good car." Mark's final test program on the~ new car swings into operation early and will go tbroughout tbis montb while lie practices for tbe Indy 500. But needless-tosay THE FINAL test is the Labatt's Blue Can-Am.
