He must've been worried about binning it, holding back like that?

Or was the track damp, that would explain it

and in car at donny

before it pitted in a dense cloud of smoke presumably

oh, and it's more a Lola than a Caterham....

That "Lola" chassis has been around for a while ...... is it now officially rebranded as a Caterham ?

Assume you're referring to the lola B08/90? In which case the caterham SP300R is a totally different car, although i have to agree they do look remarkably similar and share some common parts, the biggest difference though being the price as IIRC the Lola is about £40k more expensive

[Mark Stanton]

Not sure of model No for Lola chassis - but a while back they did some testing and released some PR material/photo's from Rockingham announcing new Caterham based on Lola chassis it was a green car at that time

P.S. it was long before it was announced that Lola had gone into admin

[Mark (smokey mow)]

It always was destined to be a Caterham, Lola were contracted to do the chassis design and development of the SP300R for Caterham

[cast iron]

It is a Lola

Anthony Dunn is the driver (usually)

The 4 seater road leagal GTR wasnt far away :-)
