that lotus looks crazy fast! I don't know what will get your arms more tired, steering and shifting, or waving bye-bye to everyone you pass.

1:34 at Laguna is no joke. What a rocket!

Out with the old and in with the new.

Look at Greggers selling the touring cars and buying race cars.

Sounds like "pro touring" to me!

You and Charley just like it because it has yellow on it!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA




To be quite honest.... When the guy told me "I won't be passing anyone on the straights" --- I took his word for it. So I WAS thinking this would be a killer little back up car AND a car my son Alex could come out and learn to drive in.... AFTER he takes more pro driving schools (arranging those now!)... and now I think he might be better off in the Mustang!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Oh my!

New cars just aren't fun... they do everything well and are too easy to drive. They've got huge brakes -- they have ABS -- they have - dare I say it - no soul.



Center steering, no windshield, monkey bars, sure looks like a lot of fun! I'm guessing its not street legal, mainly because I haven't seen any in the Microsoft parking lot.


p.s. My names Dan not Alex, sheesh Greg err dad.

It's not new -- technically it's a USED race car.....


I know... I know.... but the deal was too good to pass up --- the colors are right -- I was there.... it was there.... and anyway -- it's a good back up car because the salesman told me they never break.... But then again -- he's the same guy that told me they won't pass anything on the straights... hmmmmmmmm.



You'd likely not see them in the MSFT parking lot -- they're not street legal and I had to sign all manor of shiiiiiiz that Lotus makes you sign that it doesn't have a title - isn't street legal and blah blah blah....
