I'm looking for a little information; can anyone here tell me the weight of a Lola Mk1 sports racer?
Thanks in advance,
Anton

I'm not a Lola expert! Looking at the Technical Report on the "fifth Lola in the world" (I assume this is a Mk 1) in the November 1959 issue of "Foreign Cars Illustrated and Auto Sport", the table lists the curb weight as 840 lbs. In the text, it says "With oil and water aboard, Lola scales a mere 860 pounds. Future export models will have fiberglass front and rear sections to shave the extra 30 pounds the MGA gearbox added."
