I am trying to locate history on a "Brown" painted Lola T332 F5000, that would of raced in the SCCA Nationals in the late 1970's. Somebody must remember a "brown" T332!!!!

I'm wondering, could "Brown" refer to Warwick Brown and not the actual color? Warwick Brown raced a T332 for Pat Burke Racing back then, and the same car was later raced by a Jim Snelling in SCCA events. See http://www.f5000registry.com/lola.html
scroll down about 3/4's of the page. Just a guess.
Bobby Brown raced one as well IIRC.

Here in the Northwest a gentleman named Glen Brown raced a 332 number HU52, for many years.
the Hass/ Chaparral/ Carlton Beal/ Redman driven car sponsored by DEREKANE (a brownish colored resin) was sort of a muddied reddish brown as i recall
I was told it was a mid brown, definitely painted Brown, not the driver name. It would have raced in the regionals or local single seater races as F5000 had gone to Can-Am. This would have been 1977 to 81.
The Glen Brown car in post 5 was brown with orange and yellow stripes.
Good luck
How certain are you of the HU number, as I know the history of HU52.
Just checked my history and yes Glen Brown owned HU52, but in the 90's. I am looking for the late 70's into 1980.
But thanks anyway.
