History of a Lola T492 Sports 2000 chassis?

Sunday, and the Championship day.
I really needed to get some points advantage over the TVR, so felt a bit daunted when he showed up today with fatter wheels and tyres!

First practive was not good. My seat belt slackend just under the Bridge at 76 mph which was disconcerting and slid all over the seat, so eased off, a miserable 48 sec run.
Second practice was far more focused and i was stunned to cut the PB yet again, down to 44.98.
Car was utterly planted.

Race run #1 and serious stuff now, and cut my PB again down to 44.53 leaving the TVR way behind, but the EVOMini was of course first.

Second race run, and I just had to beat the TVR, but not fall off either, so was a bit easier on the track, back to a low 45 but still faster.

Feeling smug, I even went to the Prize giving and took a glass home.

Thus I have netted a 4 point lead today to add to the tally.

What a dramatic day, car was ballistic and even the pilot was on form.
