Wow. Thanks so much for shedding some light on the history of this car! Dad fitted outboard pontoon tanks on the car as the bladders leaked badly by the time he got the car. MUCH appreciated!

Down the road
Our Lola has left the building, now owned by Rob Shanahan. We're looking forward to seeing it's resoration.
It's been nice sharing a little of the history of these chassis with all of you. Lawrence |

Thinking we said T62 SL62-8, but lacking some paper other than where it picks up with Sans and a race entry in 1968 where it's identified as such. Not the best paper trail...but it's certain the car Sans drove went to my father, to somewhere else, then to you, and now Rob S.

RL (Robs) ran his car for the first time at Goodwood Revival 2012 as a T61 with a few minor variations from my car and I am hoping with his help to run with my son Tom driving in 2013 at the same event ... both cars are of course ex Midland Racing Partnership and apart from different coloured nose cones look identicle. Only since this event and also actually meeting these two (above) at Goodwood this year have I renewed my interest to a high level in our car and am embarking on even more research via forums etc to be even more precise when quoting it's details including analysing all the 1965-6 F2 UK/Europe race results (originals) I have which always listed driver etc plus chassis number. I will try and put together a summary on each Lola (where/when/who etc) and will have this available on request ... should be available early 2013 but I must say I am already impressed with the volume of T60 info already circulated by you guys but see a couple of anomolies I can possibly clarify very soon. My car details etc can be viewed on http://www.ibcholdings.com.au/cars (see Lola) when it was taken with a couple of other of my cars to CTS Auctions as a drawcard only to bring attention to their first Sydney auction (my only car intended to be sold was the Labatts Sierra RS500) and it was their photography and presentation that formed the basis of this webpage. I will update other details shortly. Cheers RT |
