NSR Lola T280/290 Test Car Blue.

The Lola T280-T290 series is a series of racing cars built by Lola Racing Cars in the 1970s, entered in the championships for sports prototype cars from 1972 in the three-liter and two-liter classes respectively. The version dedicated to Group 6 competitions, namely the Lola T280, boasted a 3,000 cm3 engine capable of delivering 450 horsepower on a car weighing only 600 kg, equipped with an aluminum monocoque chassis and fiberglass bodywork.

The victory at the 4 Hours of Le Mans in March 1972 showed the potential of the T280 in view of the more prestigious 24 Hours that would be held in June, where Jo Bonnier himself was involved in a fatal accident in the morning, during a lapping phase while he was in third position.

The 1/32 scale replica by NSR was created with the aim of positioning itself at the top of the “Classic” category. The various innovative and technological solutions used in the 1/32 scale creation by NSR allow the Lola T280/290 to position itself at the top of the Classic category, achieving a perfect combination of performance and history.

The Lola T280/290 is in Sidewinder configuration and equipped with the standard components of the classic range.
