Lola, Huntingdon, Engl;and. The T620 was a car produced in 1978 and 1979 to race in Formula Super Vee. About 26 were originally constructed and had Volkswagen 4 cylinder 1,600cc engines. This one looks as though it has had some development over the years with its untypical side pods. A few famous drivers cut their teeth in the Lola T620 including Arie Luyendijk. He won a number of European Championship Super Vee races in 1978 in a T620 before eventually moving on to Indy Car racing. Thomas Beaufils runs this car in French Hillclimbs in the class D/E (2) which is for single seaters up to 1,600cc. It would appear to now have a Skoda engine.

La voiture dans le photo a un moteurSkoda et quelques modifications. Peut etre le plus connu pilot de la T620 était Arie Luyendijk qui gagnait deux courses de Super Vee en 1978.
