Pat ---- If I ran a 1:58 --- that would be the "time" on the spins I'd be doing. I'd be too scared to actually drive at that rate! OMG
Seriously --- I think the Lotus can run a 2:00 = it's far faster than our old Mustangs.... and if I had the stones and seat time I'm pretty sure it's capable. There's some videos on YouTube of Andy doing 1:33 at Laguna Seca in his ... they're pretty quick little POS in the right hands. Mine would never be anywhere near those times.
I was really writing for the PT crowd that hangs here ---- that if they come to run -- and they "only" run a 2:15 or 2:10's or some such.... they should be real happy with that.... 'cause the "pros" in full on race trim are setting lap records in the very low 2:00's... and those are RECORDS -- so they're probably not "running" those times in traffic etc. It's more just to keep perspective and balance, that I make my comments.
