Lola B08/80

The Lola B08/80 is a Le Mans Prototype built by Lola Cars International. It is effectively the LMP2 version of the larger Lola B08/60, and the two are the first closed-cockpit sports prototypes built by Lola since the T92/10 of 1992. The B08/80 is optimised for the smaller engines and lighter weight of the LMP2 category. Its first chassis was used by the joint Speedy Racing Team and Sebah Automotive in the Le Mans Series and at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with the latest V8 engine from Judd. A second car was entered by B-K Motorsports and Mazda in the American Le Mans Series, debuting at Petit Le Mans in October 2008, and in the 2009 Le Mans Series season the B08/80 was the second-fastest LMP2 behind the Essex Porsche.
