[1] The dominant manufacturers were Chevrolet, Hart, BMW for the first time with a third-place finish at Brainerd, [2] Cosworth, Lola, Ralt, and March. Dominant chassis were VDS, March, Frissbee-Lola, Ralt, and Williams with their first podium with a third-place finish at Lime Rock. [3] Michael Roe was declared champion, with seven wins. The final race at Green Valley would feature the final truly notable driver in series history, John Andretti. [4]
Kim Campbell won the two liter class in his March BMW.
