  • 1 for Its Fifth Participation at Retromobile, Ascott Collection Will
    For its fifth participation at Retromobile, Ascott Collection will be presenting a selection of historic racing cars. The Formula 1 car of John Surtees and Mike Hailwood, two world motorsport champions. John Surtees was greatly attached to the SURTESS TS9B # 5, keeping it right up until 1999. This historic F1 car made a name for itself in the streets of Monaco, where it regularly finished among the leaders of the 1966 -1972 editions of the Monaco Grand Prix Historique. The Chevron B16 # 4. No doubt one of the finest prototypes of the 70's. Ascott Collection is proud to have the privilege of offering for sale chassis No. 4, a B16 that is widely known for its authenticity and its history, with participations in the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1970 to its credit: in short, a car that has now acquired considerable rarity value.... Now that historic races have incorporated a new generation of racing cars, Ascott Collection will be exhibiting a 2009 ORECA FLM09 at the Historic Sportscar Racing stand. The HSR hosts a series of historic races on the other side of the Atlantic, including one of the world's finest historic races, the HSR Classic 24 Hours of Daytona. With Lister having relaunched the production of a new series of only 10 Lister Knobblys, Ascott Collection will be offering for sale N° 7, which is ready to race, in its magnificent livery... The gorgeous 1988 MARCH BUICK 86G MOMO will be presented. Bought, sponsored and extensively raced in 1988 by Gianpiero Moretti, the owner of MOMO, it is the most developed MARCH BUICK 86G from the IMSA GTP period.

  • We Celebrate One of the Great Racing Car Constructors
    LOLA AT 60 WE CELEBRATE ONE OF THE GREAT RACING CAR CONSTRUCTORS Including FROM BROADLEY TO BIRRANE GREATEST CARS LOLA’S SECRET WEAPON THE AUDI CHALLENGER The success of the Mk1 sports-racer, usually powered by the Coventry Climax 1100cc FWA engine, brought Lola Cars into existence. It overshadowed the similar e orts of Lotus boss Colin Chapman and remained competitive for several seasons. We believe it is one of designer Eric Broadleyʼs greatest cars, so turn to page 16 to see what our resident racer made of the original prototype at Donington Park. Although the coupe is arguably more iconic, the open version of the T70 was more successful. Developed in 1965, the Group 7 machine could take a number of di erent V8 engines and was ideal for the inaugural Can-Am contest in ʼ66. Champion John Surtees, Dan Gurney and Mark Donohue won races during the campaign, while Surtees was the only non-McLaren winner in ʼ67. The big Lola remains a force in historic racing. JEP/PETCH COVER IMAGES: JEP/PETCH IMAGES: COVER J BLOXHAM/LAT Contents 4 The story of Lola How Eric Broadley and Martin Birrane Celebrating a led one of racing’s greatest constructors 10 The 10 greatest Lolas racing legend Mk1? T70? B98/10? Which do you think is best? We select our favourites and Lola is one of the great names of motorsport. Eric Broadley’s track test the top three at Donington Park fi rm became one of the leading providers of customer racing cars and scored success in a diverse range of categories.
