The sound of these beasts never disappoints at classic racing events
My all-time favourite GT car. To these thrashing around Oulton Park in the late 60s was a schoolkids dream
Andy i agree...all time fave race car ...though it just edges out the GT40, Chapparel, and the ole McLarens!!!!
Fell in love with them when I first saw and heard them racing at Oulton Park in 2012 too. So loud and brutal!
GT? I thought it was a prototype of it's time?
I was born in 1970, remember watching Speed Racer & remember being emotionally moved by the sounds & looks of these cars... by the time I was 5, if the old man couldnt find NASCAR then we would watch what ever motor sports we could find on tv at that time... I still feel the same emotions when I see & hear these sleek rockets... magic...
It’s a GT car? Not a prototype?
Ein akustischer Traum, wie langweilig sich dagegen die heutigen Rennwagen anhören......
Today "450hp" doesnt sound as scary as it used to.
True, but these things weigh about 2000-2200 lbs?
The chassis was every bit as competent and competitive as the Porsche and Ferrari cars of it's day. It just didn't have the horsepower to run with them.
The small block Chevy engine in 24 hour durability tune put out 425-450 hp. The Porsches and Ferraris probably over 500. The Ferrari probably had slight power edge with the liquid cooling. That Porsche cooling fan had to draw some serious power.
Those were 'real' HP back in the day. Not the silicon tits of today.
All talk (torque) and plenty of action.
With no traction control and weighing nothing it's very scarey
The Lola T70 had 500hp from it's pushrod V8 5liter Chevrolet V8, mechanical fuel injection and naturally asperated and weighed just 1900 pounds dry or 860kilograms. It's performance is still respectable even by today's standards!
I've always been a Porsche guy but the T70 is an absolutely beautiful car. I might even go so far as to say the Sunoco T70 specifically is probably my favorite looking classic gt car. The green number 34 in this video is particularly nice as well.
The Sunoco T70 was a favorite of mine, too.
If you haven't read the book already, if you are curious about the details of the Sunoco T70, the book, "The Unfair Advantage," by Mark Donohue and Paul Van Valkenberg is a marvelous read; as the chapters are divided up among the race cars the Penske Team had with Mark at the wheel.
The chapter of the Ferrari 512M had Donohue not pulling any punches about Ferrari, as that factory team had to be its own worse enemy; with Ferrari pursuing a self-defeating endeavor when racing against the Porsche 917s.
The Roger Penske Lola T70 Mk3b. Only Mk3B to win a 24 hour race. The 1969 Daytona 24 hours. Nearest rival was 30 laps behind. My favorite GT car of the 60's.
That opening startup. You catch plenty of great stuff!!!
Indeed! And I can't stop recording them everytime I saw one on track 😌
@@19Bozzy92 …Lucky for us! Thank you!
Fondly remember gilles villeneuves feriz being woken up at the montreal gp. Ground shook.
It’s amazing to me that Eric Broadley and Lola get so little credit in the legend of the making of Ford’s GT40.
@blxtothis - The reason they don't is because they were unsuccessful in making it a winner - or even a finisher for that matter! If you listen to the many Brits talk about it, you'd think Broadley & Lola created the car, which couldn't be further from the truth! Broadley had his own vision of what he thought the GT40 should be, totally forgetting (or ignoring) the fact that this was Ford's project and they were footing the bill for the entire build. It was designed, engineered and developed by Ford's Roy Lunn and his staff through Kar-Kraft in Michigan, Ford's contracted performance firm. Kar-Kraft was Ford's version of Lola Cars. Broadley's self righteous attitude pissed off the wrong (or right!) people at Ford and he was sent packing back to his Lola Car Co. Carroll Shelby and his small company, Shelby American, as well as Kar-Kraft and Holman Moody completed the GT40 in winning form where Broadley/Lola never got the car sorted out properly. 🤠 🏆 🏁
@@Loulovesspeed A lot of what you have said here is not true. Lola factually did design and build the initial cars developed from the Lola Mk6 GT which had attracted Ford's attention at Le Mans after the Ferrari snub.The first cars were assembled by Abbey Panels and by Lola in the workshop Ford purchased in Slough England. The body was designed by Roy Lunn, and was not successful, too high at the front and sloping down at the rear. Unlike the immediately succesful Lola T70 which won the first Can-Am championship. Also Broadley suggested Ford retain the aluminium based monocoque and spaceframe design, but Ford understandably used all steel so they could productionise it more easily into what would have been the world's first mid-engined super car. But then they never went through with that except for a few road legal versions of the Mk1 and specifically the Mk3. The combination of non race-bred aero packaging and heavy steel chassis made the very first car pretty poor and yes it did need development which is where Kar-Kraft, Shelby and co. certainly succeeded, as well as taking advantage of the rule that now allowed the 427 motor to be used. Other teams also developed the revised car including Alan Mann Racing, H&M, and most notably ex-Aston Martin racing team manager (managing Shelby and Salvadori to their Le Mans Win) John Wyer (also a Brit on the initial GT40 program in England) who ran all the Gulf Racing cars of the time, Mk1 GT40s in 1968 and 69 and Porsches including the 917 all through that era. Kar Kraft developed the GT Mk IV which included a revised chassis featuring more aluminium and greatly improved aero with the help of ex-Lola man Tony Southgate (who would go on to design the Shadow cars, and help develop the Ford RS200 and the Ferrari 333SP). So yes Lola did build the initial cars, and to say useful British infulence was negligible is untrue. Finally I think Ford and Broadley agreed to disagree, he was taken on for a fixed contract and when it finished they parted ways, likewise John Wyer. Ford now had a cutting-edge monocoque mid-engine chassis design (Porsche by comparison built their first monocoque in 1980), Lola had a new factory and new projects. Broadley designed Honda's RA300 F1 car, The Can-Am T160 and T220 series, the first F5000 cars, the evolving T70, and Graham Hill's Indianapolis winning car and others before 1970, and a lot more including further non-Lola brand name cars after that.
Also Ken Miles.
@@garnicholson74 - All I could find on Tony Southgate's involvement with Ford was designing the chassis for their RS200 Group B rally car. The Ford MKIV was entirely American designed and built in the USA through Ford, Kar-Kraft and Holman Moody.
@@Loulovesspeed Granted the Mk IV was the car Ford should have built to start with, and was an amazing and well developed vehicle. And though Ken Miles died testing it's development version, it was built totally under American auspices. Maybe Ford should have just gone to Jim Hall. I apologise I can't remember my source for TS working on the MkIV though I read it recently, perhaps that was spurious.
@@garnicholson74 - If this had been a more conventional road racing model, then Hall would have probably been an excellent choice with his level of creativity and visionary style. Problem is, he had no more experience in 24 endurance racing than Ford did. I don't know, but Hall being brought in would have been very interesting at the very least!
And what makes this so special is, if you so wish, you can still get a "new" one in the form of the Broadley T76. You don't get to say that too often.
The 70s were peak motorsport IMO
💯
Thanks for posting. I became a race fan at age 15 and loved SCCA Trans-Am and Can-Am and later IMSA Camel GT. Watched many Lolas race at Laguna Seca back in 1970. Great looking and sounding race cars.
No worries! Thank you for watching
Those were Big Block cars, a very different sound.
Ha ha...same here bud, also Sears Point for me as well.
Too bad Lola never made a street car …
I'm having multiple eargasms! 😆
Nothing beats the sound of a good raunchy American V8
Amazing car.... absolutely sensational! One of the best sounds ever, beautiful car! That is real racing!
Every time I watch this, I feel so much better. I'm beginning to think that Lolas are therapeutic.
Honestly, the T70 and the GT40 are both the Sexiest race cars I've ever seen! Pure 1960's Beauty!😍❤️🔥🏁
For me, the Lola T70 Mk3 is the most awesome-looking racing car ever. Beautiful and fearsome at the same time.
This is another favorite race car of mine Bozzy. I love the T70 MK3B. They hold a special place in my heart along with many others.
I never get tired of watching - and listening to - these glorious Lolas. 😍 Thank you!
Paul 😎
Can you imagine a modern version of this car, sporting a C7R V8?...🤯
Love that British Green
Ever since they were first introduced to the racing world, I have thought that the Lola T70 Mk3B, with their race prepared v8s, held the distinction of being one of the most beautiful race cars from that era, and wonderfully badass at the same time. There was a yellow one at a concours de elegance in Palm Springs some 20 years ago, and I could hardly pull myself away from it to look at other cars. Still in love after after all those decades have passed.
Absolutely radical. These cars are the real race cars. I've always loved to see and hear them perform. Thanks for uploading!
One of the most brutal sounding Historic GT cars, awesome video!
Cool!! Thanks for the posting!!
No problem at all!
A proper sound for a true race car. Today's race cars don't sound so brutal.
Beautiful! Thanks so much!
Absolutely wonderful! One of my favourite sports cars ever. Also, unbeatable in my Top Trumps deck as a kid
When I wás growing up it was Lola T70 vs Ford GT40 in my childhood slotcar race track days!
What beautiful music!! I lived really close to Laguna Seca and loved hearing these cars race.
Looks and sounds amazing. Perfect captured, as always. 😁
Outstanding.
Wow my favorite type of racing such class such beauty such power 😉 beautiful looking race cars.
Superb Sound !!!
Amazing footage, you can almost smell the exhaust.. beautiful
That sweet candy smellin fuel
Had to watch these beauties again, nice job on recording!
well filmed, audio was spot on!
Made me feel like I was back at Le Mans, I could almost smell the tyres oil and burnt petrol.
I've been going to Le Mans since 2008
Eargasms!
Yellow, green, white.. beautiful vid and sound as usual. Thanks!
beautiful ! the different catches are nice to watch .
An amazingly beautiful car….and sounds like a beast!
Absolutely fantastic looking and sounding car.
One of the best,the P 3/4 was more. Beautiful cars, the Lola's.
Glory days gone by. Thank you!
Love it❗️🏁‼️
BEAUTIFUL.
I've still never met a T70 that I didn't love.
The russian tank? 😆
@@b.s.7693 valid point! Though living in Indianapolis, I've never met one.
@@apancher Seeing how Russia is currently doing in Ukraine, I don't think you will ever have to either 😁
What a gorgeous car.
I remember these fondly!! Someone should make a kit car.
amazing😍
Just looking at the T70 is perfect just about as gracefully done as any top race car or super car for that matter given the year these cars were designed ...Top notch ..
The Lola T70, the Porsche 917k, the Ferrari 330 P4, race cars used to be so pretty.
Yep! They all had distinctive characteristics.
Nowadays, I can't tell the difference between Toyota, Nissan, Peugeot, Audi, Porsche, or any of the other current breed of coupe racers.
V 8 - это всегда праздник ))
Now that's a SOUND GAURDEN👆
Nothing beats open headers!
How sweet it is
what a beauty
Always Bozzy!!
10/10 would want a street version. 🤩
What a beast
Suport slalu bang
Беги Лола - Беги !!!
I watched more of this than the last F1 race
It's funny to think that we had 4 of these in 1/43rd scale slot cars.
Tremendous
I would love to have a street legal Lola T-70 Can-Am cars...were the cars of my youth. I saw a lot of them at the Riverside International Raceway.
I was parked at the Esses at Riverside, miss those days😀👍
Small Block Chevy's sound great, but the Big Blocks in CanAm cars were the best! Try getting some audio of them! The comparison of the normally aspirated Big Block cars to the turbo charged Porches was incredible.
Totally agree.
Awesome compilation. Deep throated V8's sound hungry...
8:40 - 9:00. Yes.
It was remarkable to see how Roger Penske had the T70 Mk3B developed to a level to be competitive against the Porsche 908s in 1969. It made for an exciting time in endurance racing. Other teams just couldn't get the same Lolas on the same competitive level with the 908s.
The Penske team couldn't make the Le Mans race in 1969, as their Lola and team trailer were stolen. When it was recovered, the car was torn apart. The Penske team didn't have the resources to mount a Le Mans effort after that.
But, in looking back, Penske skipping Le Mans in 1969 may have contributed to his Trans Am Camaro team winning the SCCA Trans Am championship that year . . . as the Bud Moore Ford Mustangs were a formidable opponent that year.
Lightweight Camaro. 370 lbs lighter due to acid dipping and qualifying after number changing and substitution
@@stephenpage-murray7226 (in a tone of pleasure) Ah! Yes! xD
They sound better on recordings than they do in real life, because in real life they are so incredibly loud it hurts your eardrums.
💥
Just for comparison, I would love to hear a few of these beauties powered by Ford engines, as I personally think they have even better sounding race engines. It would be interesting at least!
American Muscle ! nuff said 😊
One of the best ever.
They were all campaigned by independent teams, NOT factory teams.
What they actually needed was an aluminum head 427 like the John Greenwood Corvettes had.
There is a company making new cars. And they're actually correct real race cars.
I wonder if there is a rub strip under the nose so the bodywork isn't worn away during hard braking.
With gobs of torque, real men only needed the four speed box at the back of this beast. Always felt it was a crime to crash the T70's in THX3811 and LaMons.
The old girls deserved better!!!
Plenty of understeer!
Back in the day race cars had a motor.
Mi carro GT favorito el lo la T_170 de toda la vida
I'm getting on a bit but when I was young if you asked any little boy to draw a racing car, chances are it looked just like one of these, we didn't know one from another b ut we knew what looked cool to us.
Not able to produce 450 hp, but a lot more. You can have 1000 hp but it's a question of compromise because you want reliability on a race track
Get in if you want to LIVE
sounds like my L 88 without a flywheel
What a beast with that glorious V8 roar! Would be totally better if it was an EV. Just kidding!!! Ballistic Banana.
The back in the day race car design........Pack as much Horsepower into a sleek design....and see who has the guts to keep the throttle pegged.
Porsche is getting *kicking
Sounds a little SCARY to me 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Music to my ears!! 👂👂👂🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
The most sexy brute ever put on wheels ! ❤❤❤
Looking at these cars, I'm expecting porsche engine-type sounds to come from the exhaust lol
Very different to hear the V8 coming from them
V8
Where is Lola from like which country?
UK
great, great . great. this is sound of racing car, not like today cars
I could do that
Something weird sounding about this car. Never heard one sound like this one. Slow revving too.(1st Yellow car). The White car sounds more like it should be.
I've got a 450 hp V8 in my car, but it doesn't sound like that!
probably due to your mufflers..
550 hp non 450 hp
It’s a Chevy, don’t blow it up before you get a ride
Just listen to all that ear candy!!
the Beast😯😯👍sound is amazing!
