Vic Elford drives Tony's beautiful Lola T-70 at Road Atlanta


Here's Tony's 1970 Le Mans 312P as it looks today. Only two such cars exist, and Tony raced both.
Today, SN 0872 owned by Peter Sachs in Stamford, CT.

2.0MB .wmv Video of a Gulf/Wyer Porsche 917K, exactly like McQueen's camera car


Traffic jam at La Source. This is the end of the Mulsanne straight, looks like the 312 caught up with the Corvette at the same time the Bell/Peterson 512 caught them both.

Feck me: 1000 hp without downforce . . . in a formula car!

[Klassiekerrally]

The sentence 'When sex was safe and racing was dangerous' suddenly makes sense!

[Rum Runner]

Proper race cars that sound scary , never mind driving them.

Can't wait for Spa 6 hrs. Same thing there: T70's whizzing by, thundering Cobra's and blazing CanAm's. No downforce for those chaps. All James Hunt spirit . . .

You've outdone yourself.

The sound of the overrun on these engines is the next best thing to sex.

In fact, they're sex on wheels.

Nothing wrong with Hilborn or Kinsler mechanical injection.
