OMG --- those (Lola's) and the Chaparral's and the GT40's et al -- that was pure nirvana when I was in high school.


How awesome to have something like that!

Hey thank you Rod for the kind words...not anything someone would do for a friend...and Dave & Mary are some of the nicest peeps anyone could call friends...anyone who knows them knows that.

Anyhow's...awesome day today,Dave got re-acquainted with the car in short order with a strong 20 minute session that not only bedded the brake pads but produced 7k bursts...and came back clean and dry...really not much more one could ask for after a 5 year absence.

Tired right now but please follow along here for the complete start-to-finish story along with the latest updates:

That's just the coolest thing ever John --- You've heard me say it before -- the cars are just the part that gets people together --- so it's perfect that you were there to help Mary and David! They're great folks! Lucky you!

That little Lola has to stir the soul for sure!

Rodney/John thanks for sharing and all your efforts. Tell Dave my 11 y.o. watched the vid with me and now wants a Lola instead of a Viper or GT40 :D :thumbsup:

I am going to try to get back out there tomorrow and support you guys again! But I have to get to the farmers market in San Francisco at about 5am and then I will head back down to Laguna Seca, and try to make the morning practice and afternoon race, I hope the shirts came in today, since they weren't at the house this morning

MarkM66 08-17-2013 06:07 AM

Did you see the event being filmed for TV?

I'm guessing with the demise of SPEED, it won't make it to TV.
