1992 OR 1993 BUD KING LOLA ?????????

[Chris]

OK this picture appears to be a wind tunnel version of what Year Lola??? I wanted to do this version because it is so slick looking?? I checked the 92 Pole car and the 93 entries for the 500 and there are similar versions but??? Also it never ran with this decal set up instead the Bud was replaced with Quaker State..So What Year is it???and who made a kit or resin of it??

Looks like a 92 to me.

Thats what I thought...Any Kits or Resins around?? I know the Tamiya is a T93/00 and could probably be converted in 1/20th scale but how about 1/25th scale/ 1/24th scale???

There is a vacuform but it is super rare. I saw one once for sale on another forum and eventually bought it from the guy who bought it on the forum.

The Bud car was run in 1993 with Guerrero in #40, Crawford in #60, and Al Unser Sr. in #80.
The Quaker State cars were run in 1992 with Guerrero in #36
Pole Car , and Crawford in the #26.
This car can be made from a body from Bill J. or you might use a Onyx die cast 1/24 scale. I'm working on both cars one of each body.
Hope this helps

Walt makes a good point - this is a '92 car wearing '93 colors.

Clearly a 92. Notice the roll bar is the old style & fuel fill is lower on the body. Go to Michael's site and see a picture of the 93 Tamiya and you will know what I mean.

Since Bernstein Budwieser Racing was the factory developmental team for both 1992 and 1993 there seems to be a lot variation in the presentation of the cars, 1992 Pole Car...... 1993 enteries...... and to top it off the original picture looks to be a post 1992 pre- 1993 wind tunnel shot.. These are all 1992 cars..1993 cars were Red with Budweiser in white
.If I am correct??? Note Guerrero's car has two different types of wheels in the 1993 shot Chris
