Fresh off the GT40 project in 1964, Lola's Eric Broadley designed his own sports racer, the T70, to race in 1965. It combined everything he had learned working for Ford with all of the ideas they wouldn't let him try. Though it was quick straight away, he immediately set to work on improving it and in 1966 the MkII was put into production. Lighter and faster, it dominated all competition on both sides of the Atlantic, proving to be unbeatable in nearly every event it entered. It won its debut race, the final round of the 1965 British Road Racing Championship, and then swept all 7 races the following year. It won 5 of 6 rounds of the 1966 Can Am series in North America and also won the US Road Racing Championship in '66 and '67. The chassis was designed to accept either a Ford or Chevrolet small-block V8 and cars competed with both, although the Chevrolet engines were more popular and, overall, more successful. Among the Chevrolet-powered teams was that of John Surtees, which became the de facto works outfit. It is Surtees' 1966 5.9L Can Am car that we have tried to re-create here. Ok folks, here's hoping this is the last update. Obviously if we get any further AC updates that necessitate a change, I'm on it... and if Amplified updates the GT40 sounds, I'll incorporate that into this package too. But let's call this 1.0 and hope for the best. Changelog: fixed errors in log from aero.ini added Tero Corvette livery added new soundbank to the Ford car removed obsolete sound banks from sfx folders adjusted Ford car's rear spring rate tweaked tires for AC v1.15 fixed Lola logo displaying incorrectly in Kunos UI download v1.0
