In car vid of our Lola T70 at Silverstone last year, driven by the very smooth Nigel Greensall, he makes it look so easy!

I'm guessing you are thinking Gulf colours? I painted a GT40 years ago in blue and orange, but have never posted any pics anywhere of said car, lives in Australia now iirc
Everything I paint now is orange and black... I dream in orange and black :grin:
The Lola is sitting in my workshop with the front end wiped off it :rolleyes:

is that from the silverstone classic? need to get to this one year it looks like a great event. I chose the superprix at brands this year to catch the group c cars on the gp circuit  :cool:

I seem to remember seeing your lola at the masters a few years ago in the kitty litter @ druids  :shocked:  :lipsrsealed: lovely cars though, the lolas and chevrons are the best looking at these historic meets

Uhh, dunno why I imagined that then, probably got carried away from clicking related youtube links, then end up an hour later wondering why I'm watching the current video  :huh: I'm always doing that  :tongue:
