Docking Spitzley
enter cars in 1982 as DS1#2 & 3 for Tassin & Rossi but also run Lola 850 hu 2 as well and Toleman Tg280#3 is a spare?
Is the DS1 a Lola car with mods or a new car? as they had T850 Hu2 & 3 i suspect they are Lola /toleman cars with mods
1981 or did they modify toleman TG280#3 to a DS1 car?
On paper toleman and lola are the same cars except the bodywork differs
DS team had
Toleman TG280#3 & 6
Lola T850 hu 2 & 3 so DS1#3 could be either car!! I guess I will have to ask Alan next week
