Joy and pain! Saw my first Lola T70, then saw it crash...
The historics race meeting was held at QR last weekend. What an event - maybe an equal match for Speed on Tweed. I didn't know that there were any Lola T70s in the country. It turns out there is, and it looks and sounds as mindblowing as I'd always imagined. Amazing !!!
The owner wasn't afraid to give it heaps - full noise down the straights, and carrying decent speed through the corners. It all came unstuck when he spun going into turn 3 on the short course, only to be cleaned up by an open wheeler following behind.
Damn, I hate to see historic race cars damaged.....
