Great!

Thanks, Paul!

Correct on the 1/32 Revell kit.

I think that Bill Jorgensen might have done a kit of a '91 or '92 Lola..........?

Your welcome!

Yes shayne, thaaanks!!! :D
Sure I want also '92 pics.
In particular, I am quite interested on the evolution of Rahal's car. I had the feeling that he started the season with a '91 Lola. But now I think he didn't. The most disctintive feature between T91 and T92 is on front upper wishbone: front arm is at 90º, and pushrod between it and steering rod, while '91 car the attachment poit goes further forward.
Nevertheless I amvery interested on the different rollbar layouts of the late '92 LOlas. I also thought that lower engine cover and taller rollbar was due to smaller XB Ford engine, but had the impression that this was started late '92 season.

Oh and yes, Indycars of that age were really goodlooking. Even better than contemporary F1.
