Bit odd... the address is correct but doesn't work if you click on the link from here. Try copying & pasting this address into your browser and it should be OK.

It's because the ')' is not supposed to be part of the address. Try http://wsrp.wz.cz/ and specifically http://wsrp.wz.cz/mesport.html
There are some pictures on this site: http://www.racingsportscars.com/photo.html |

Whoops... Didn't notice the bracket. Sorry about that.
My original post was intending to highlight Martin's chassis listings at: http://wsrp.wz.cz/chassis/chassis.html |

i HAVE BEEN FLICKING THROUGH MY lOLA STARKEY BOOKS AND WE HAVE MISSED THE 380 VERSION OF THE 280 CARS WITH DFV 5 CARS BUILT
READING THE ARTICLE IT READS -THE 380 WAS A NEW CAR WITH RISING RATE SUSPENSION -BUT THE BODY IS 286 IN ITS SHAPE MAYBE WE HAVE SOME OF THESE CARS MIXING UP THE 280-86 CARS ESPECIALLY IN THE USA WHERE WE ARE MISSING SOME ID TAGS LOLA ALSO RAN 390 SERIES CAR LOOKING LIKE A 296 IN BODY SHAPE |

Lola T280 / T380
Just to be clear the Starkey book is not correct!
It shows a picture of the T286 as a T380. The T380 has its own body which is similar to the T390. The T380 was a totally different car in every way so i do not think there is any mix up of the two types. |

I know Mr Starkey did not proof read his book very well hence yr comments on fotos
i thought the 380 390 body was completly different to the 286 294 shape Fison cars was for sale on yr site once ( or was it Belga livery car) it was an ugly shape compared to the 286/294 style De Cadanet ran 1 car at le man and Raymond had the Fisons car |

All of the pictures in the "LOLA ILLLUSTRATED HISTORY" OF THE T380 are actually of the T286 inc ther picture of the suspension.
and the picture of the T390 is a picture of the T298. The T390 series cars were totally different to the T290/2/4/6/8 and were not a development at all in fact the car (T380 /T390) was a bit of a diasaster. |

Guys, I agree that Starkey's book is flawed but can we keep the criticism constructive, please.
