Just a vintage club racer that loves the wonderful social scene of CVAR almost as much as the racing.
What car(s) do you own?
Lola T540, 2003 M-B E55 AMG, 2008 Audi TT roadster
What do you like to do (e.g. vintage race with...)?
My only race car is a Lola T540. The yellow Lola T212 belongs to my friend Jeff Anderson. For some reason, he's kind enough to let me drive it occasionally!
Hope all is well - I am now on four wheels and was wondering if you or any others you may know with Lola FFs have had this issue. My clutch slave cylinder is mounted onto the adaptor plate and seems to flex causing issues with the di engagement of the clutch.
Do you know of any way to improve the mounting in the hydraulic unit?

Hi Pete,
Tried sending a message last week but I fear it may not have got to you.
From you last contact I now assume you are back home so may I impose upon you and ask if you can find the time to check if you do have a spare Revolution four spoke that you are willing to sell.
I have not had any luck so far.
I must have deleted my return response yesterday - sorry.
I wanted to say thank you for comming back to me. I would be most grateful if you do take time upon you return to see if you have a spare that you are willing to sell.
In the meantime I am atempting to register with Apexspeed to post a Wanted Ad.
Hi Pete,
I have recently joined and following discussions with Stephen Page he suggested contacting Lola members to seek assistance in obtaining a replacement wheel for my T440 damaged last week.
It is a Revoultion our spoke with Lola 41/4 PCD and has 2 1/2 inch inside off set. As I don't have a spare the car now stands on three wheels !!
The car is Chassis Number HU 440/67/51/106 and last US owner was Wayne Buttermore and raced from 1977 to 1989.
It is now fully restored and as mentioned to Stephen I hope to visit the US with it in 2011.

My buddy only towed me at wakeboarding speeds... Right about 20mph and the board started to shimmy.
TWS was loads of fun. See you there in February!
When are you going to join G1? :-)
