Chris Wilson Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Why won't the missus let me flog the house and live in a tent? Then I could buy my dream car.... http://www.race-cars.com/carsales/lola/1120758651/1120758651ss.htm It keeps appearing in odd places for sale, just to wind me up....

Muffleman Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Horsepower 650+, weight ? 1700lbs, 771kg. That's 843bhp per tonne And no doubt sticks to the road like you know what. Chris my suggestion is this - STOP LOOKING AT RACE CARS FOR SALE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 OUTRIGHT Brands lap record: 38.032 Mansell in a 97 Benetton Judd V10 So the Lolas best time there of 38.12 sec is not too shabby... I think I could frighten myself in that OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Why won't the missus let me flog the house and live in a tent? Because you've got a beautiful house and your birds would peck a hole in your tent in 2 seconds flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmic Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Yep, Scott Mansell, he pedalled that Benetton pretty well Saw him race in euroboss round at silverstone last year.

suprz_rz Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 According to the club stats at the bottom of the first page, there are nearly 3000 members. Thats only £100 each and we get a club race car. It is already primed ready for stickers, logos and advertising ready to pump money back into the club. Any winnings, profits from ads etc.. get shared out amongst the club members. What you all reckon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 How on earth do you get 650 bhp from a 4 litre normally aspirated engine??? I'll volunteer my £100 for a club race car People do it with horses all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
