1961 Nota FJ#38

-
Chassis #38
-
This rare Nota was the first Australian built mid-engined Formula Junior. It was produced by Guy Buckingham’s Nota Cars in Sydney Australia for the 1962 season. By then Nota had already established themselves as a small but versatile marque specializing in single-seat, and sports racing cars.Â
-
Buckingham produced the prototype of an expected production run to rival the likes of Brabham, Elfin, Lotus and Rennmax which had previously been the dominant manufacturers in the national Formula Junior Championship.
-
As this particular car was the prototype Nota it was clothed in an aluminum body (fabricated by Jack Wifton). Buckingham intended to produce the customer versions with the cheaper and lighter fiberglass bodies. The car was originally painted blue with bare aluminum engine side panels. The wheels were a Ron Tauranac (Brabham and later Ralt owner/engineer) design with cast aluminum centers bolted to spun steel rims.
-
The Nota was completed in December, 1961. Guy Buckingham took the Nota for its first shakedown run at Warwick Farm in January 1962. In April, Les Howard piloted the Nota in its inaugural race at Oran Park. It won its first time out!
- Low time Stuart Rolt engine. Rebuilt VW gearbox. Outboard front drum brakes and inboard rear drum brakes.
- The Nota chassis is reminiscent of the well proven, highly successful, Lotus 20 space frame design. Yet it is unique and special with its prototype aluminum bodywork. So you get the best of both worlds with the Nota, proven design, yet a rare and desirable entry for the top events.
- FIA HTP valid until 31.12.2027
- Located in the UK
