Thats the Danny O I was talking about. The T-400 was the first front coilover rockerarm chassis that Lola made. they were the last F5000 cars made and with out suffecent bodywork they would unload in the middle of a corner. I heard that they spent more time off the track than on. Once you converted it to a Frissbee bodywork you had suffecent Downforce to keep it hooked up in the corners. I watched Horst Krolls T400 frissbee run away from the rest of the Can-Am field at Mossport Canada in the hands of a now famious Indy car driver on his first outing.

My Vette is legal for GT-1 with the brakes on it. I sure hate to have to give them up. They work sooooo well...!! My car has a 6" corrillo rod 355ci with a offroad chev cam. With a 4:11 It ran a 12.08 119mph in the quarter mile in 3rd and still made the first turnoff. Now that is in full roadrace trim. W/11" wide hard compound tires on it F & R !!!

We were shaking down the stock shifter that I have always used. In roadracing the hurst is a good way to get the tranny locked between gears and loose a race sitting in the pits.
