History of a Lola T492 Sports 2000 chassis?

[911thillclimber]

Clive:
Those are the rear tyre size today.
The wheels spin, certainly do not bog down!

The Impreza was 1250 Kg/370 bhp and 4 x 4 on 205 section slicks, lsd rear diff open front.
The 911 is 1000Kg/230 bhp 2 rear drive on Kumho V70 soft spec tyres, open diff

The Lola is 580 kg/ 250 bhp (without me), 12" tyres, Quaife diff.

Engine is set at 6400 due to Porsche specs (rod bolts not the strongest). Red line is actually 6250 so I'm over the top a little as it is..

On another note!

In my history of the car I thought Bernie Garwood owned the Lola.

He did not! In 1980 in the Caribbean Airlines race Peter Newman raced the car. He (Peter) owned it! I've had an informative pm from Peter's nephew tonight who recalls the car and his uncle Peter.

Thus the history is Perter Sadler bought it new, Peter Newman bought it from Peter.
Interesting Paul Wilkins bought it from Bernie!!
