At last I've finally got it finished!
Beardog Racing's Lotus 34 has been a labour of love. Finding the reference has taken many hours of research and surfing the web. And many thanks to Slidingsideways. Again only 50 will be produced, but remember this is a 1/32 scale slot car. It comes complete with decals to assemble either the car as it is now in the Parnelli Jones museum, or as it raced in the1964 Indianapolis 500.
Colin Chapman built three Lotus 34’s for the Indianapolis 500 in 1964, each one had the same specifications, Engine: V8, dual overhead camshafts per bank, fuel injected, 255ci. 475bhp at 8,250rpm; Gearbox: ZF two-speed, Suspension: four wheel independent; Chassis: offset to left of centerline by 2 3/8 inches; Brakes: four wheel disc. Single seat speedway racing car. All three were entered by the works team. All three cars were used in practice.
