He also contributes news, reviews and features to CAR. Heu2019s worked as a motoring writer since 2011, starting his career whilst doing a journalism degree. He ran a blog dedicated to cars and dabbled with print, video and audio. He even managed to get himself onto some of the big industry events.nEven before graduating, Graham landed a job with the now-defunct Only Motors before moving on a couple of years later to Motor1. In that time, he wrote millions of words on just about every motoring-related topic under the sun. Including a lot about Pokemon Go, weirdly.nAfter a few years earning a crust as a bus driver (for the second time) and working on personal projects, Graham picked up a freelancing gig with carwow that led to a full-time role at Drover, then transferred when the company was bought out by Cazoo. Redundancy and a period of freelancing for Motoring Research, among others, brought Graham to Bauer in 2023.nCareer highlights so far include taking a Mercedes Sprinter 4u00D74 van around the Millbrook off-road course, getting air in a Rolls-Royce Phantom (again at Millbrook) and sitting beside touring car legend Matt Neal as he did astonishing things with a Honda Civic Type R.nWhen heu2019s not furiously tapping away at his keyboard, Graham can usually be found with his head in a car (or truck or bus) magazine. He also collects model cars and brochures, builds Lego, plays drums and volunteers with his local Scout group.nYou can follow Graham on his X page, and you can find a list of his articles at the

car shown<br \/>\u25ba Well under 1000kg\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The legendary Lola T70 racing car has been revived for the road with a 500bhp Chevrolet V8 engine and bodywork made from 100% natural fibres. There\u2019s also a lighter, faster 530bhp competition version that\u2019s eligible for Historic racing. Both versions weigh well under 1000kg, so performance is\u2026 significant.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s the Lola T70, then?<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most successful mid-engined sports racing cars of the 1960s. It first raced \u2013 and won \u2013 in 1965, becoming the car to beat in the bonkers Can-Am series. Dozens of wins and several championships followed, but it was the final Mk.IIIB coupe version that made the T70 iconic.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/480x0\/052-lola-t70s-rear-thre-quarters.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Image of a blue Lola T70S, viewed from the rear right three quarters at a high angle\" class=\"wp-image-258403\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/480x0\/052-lola-t70s-rear-thre-quarters.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/720x0\/052-lola-t70s-rear-thre-quarters.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/1040x0\/052-lola-t70s-rear-thre-quarters.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because it\u2019s widely regarded as one of the most beautiful racing cars there has ever been, also because it scored the T70\u2019s biggest success when the Team Penske cars finished one-two in the 1969 24 Hours of Daytona. Many T70s of all varieties are still campaigned in Historic racing and, by all accounts, a well-sorted one\u2019s a delightful, friendly, really very quick thing.<\/p>\n<p>There have been many T70 Mk.IIIB replicas produced over the years, including a run of Continuation cars built by Lola itself. And it\u2019s the Mk.IIIB that the latest version faithfully copies.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tell me about the new version<\/h2>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The new Lola T70S couldn\u2019t just be mistaken for the original, it essentially is the original, but made using modern materials and techniques. So it has an aluminium monocoque chassis and composite body, double wishbone suspension with adjustable dampers, 304mm brakes with four-piston calipers all round and gorgeous five-spoke magnesium alloy wheels. Even the powertrain mirrors the Chevrolet\/Hewland combination favoured in period. Indeed, it\u2019s so faithful that every race version will come with FIA papers for Historic racing.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/480x0\/053-lola-t70s-gt-front.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Image of a grey Lola T70S GT viewed head-on from a high angle\" class=\"wp-image-258405\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/480x0\/053-lola-t70s-gt-front.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/720x0\/053-lola-t70s-gt-front.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/1040x0\/053-lola-t70s-gt-front.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>The big departure is in the type of composite used to make the body. Dubbed Lola Natural Composite System (LNCS), the fibre element is taken from agricultural waste and basalt rock, while the resin is plant-based. Lola claims LNCS is stronger than glassfibre reinforced polyester (GRP) and reduces noise, vibration and harshness. CO2 emissions from production are massively, reduced as well.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s performance like?<\/h2>\n<p>Huge. The road-going T70S GT is powered by a 6.2-litre Chevy V8 producing 500hp driving the rear wheels through a six-speed gearbox that can be switched between H-pattern and sequential shifting. With a mere 890kg to shift, it catapults from 0-62mph in just 2.9 seconds, and 0-124mph in 9.3 seconds, before reaching 200mph flat-out. Without traction control or anti-lock brakes, even power steering.<\/p>\n<p>The racing T70S is even faster. To comply with FIA regs it has a period-correct 5.0-litre Chevy V8 producing 530bhp, connected to an equally period five-speed Hewland LG 600 gearbox. Without the GT\u2019s aircon, it weighs 860kg. That translates to 0-62mph in 2.5 seconds \u2013 the same as a current Porsche 911 Turbo S \u2013 0-124mph in 8.9 seconds and 203mph.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/480x0\/057-lola-t70s-interior-detail.jpg?scale=down\" alt=\"Close-up image of the Lola T70S interior\" class=\"wp-image-258411\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/480x0\/057-lola-t70s-interior-detail.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/720x0\/057-lola-t70s-interior-detail.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/258395\/1040x0\/057-lola-t70s-interior-detail.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Grand Prix and Le Mans winner Johnny Herbert is taking care of chassis development \u2013 having recently campaigned the famous green Mk.IIIB owned for many years by privateer racer David Piper \u2013 so it should be as good to drive as the original.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anything else I should know?<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s tiny.
