The 1977 Can Am season was the tenth running of the Sports Car Club of America's prototype-based series. Despite the revived name, however, the new series was entirely unrelated to the previous series which had folded in 1974. Most of the competitive cars were based on Formula 5000 chassis. Also, the first time under 2-litre cars were allowed to race, but with no separate class. Patrick Tambay was declared champion, winning six of the nine races that year for Carl Haas. While Lola chassis dominated the series, a Chevrolet powered driven by Tom Klausler won the first race at Mont Tremblant. Other competitive cars included the 1974 champions Shadow, who now used Dodge engines and Wolf with a Dallara-built chassis. While Chevrolet was not the only engine supplier, they swept the entire seaso

| - Can-Am 1977 var ett race som kördes över nio omgångar. Det var den första säsongen där man körde om Can-Am-titeln i ombyggda formel 5000-bilar, från de mer renodlade sportvagnarna man använt fram till 1974. Tack vare dessa nyare bilar kunde mästerskapet startas om. Man kunde även i fortsättningen locka förare från formel 1, och den franske talangen Patrick Tambay tog hand om den första titeln i Can-Am:s andra era. (sv)

Other competitive cars included the 1974 champions Shadow, who now used Dodge engines and Wolf with a Dallara-built chassis. While Chevrolet was not the only engine supplier, they swept the entire season. This season also marked a resurgence of interest in SCCA events, with Can Am accompanying F5000 and the Trans Am Series seeing a mild resurgence in the eighties. Formula 5000 itself would also be classified as "single-seat Can Am", despite two-seater cars also entering the series. (en)
