Some cars leave a paper trail; the Lola T310 left a name and a place in Lola Cars's list. What follows is what can be said with a source behind it. The shape is credited to Eric Broadley.

Where it came from

The Lola T310 is a Group 7 sports prototype race car, designed, developed, and built by the British manufacturer and constructor Lola, to compete in the Can-Am championship from the 1972 season.

Under the skin

the output is 740 hp. On the scales it comes to 705 kg. That is roughly 1050 horsepower per tonne: hypercar territory, where the limiting factor is the tyre, not the engine. The wheelbase is 105.5 in. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.

In context

Nearby in the Lola Cars catalogue sit the Hill GH1 and the Lola B02/50.
