Lola boldly called the MkII version of their T70 the most successful sports car of 1966. And rightly so since it won some of the most important UK races, as well as the USSRC and Can-Am Championships in North America. Eric Broadley’s T70 sports prototype was upgraded from the same successful...

In 1967 and 1968, the Porsche 910/8 Bergspyder was the dominant force before the 909 came along. Technically, the Porsche 910 Bergspyder was state-of-the-art, featuring materials...
