New Toy has Arrived!!
Woo Hoo! I picked up the Lotus on Wednesday.. not necessarily the best convertible weather, but it has a TOP!! Almost a luxury car by comparison.

(Photo by Treo 650)
With 4 miles on the clock, I headed straight for 85 north in pouring rain and 600 miles later arrived in VA to visit to folks... observing all break-in instructions along the way...

Today the top comes off and I am looking forward to some summer mountain runs!! |

Hi Chill,
Now you need to find some good roads with some serious bends to get the most out of your new toy. On a good twisting road, there won't be much than can get anywhere near you, regardless of power. The Elise pretty much writes the rule book as far as handling is concerned.
Enjoy.

GREAT article on in the Lotus E. in the latest issue of GrassrootsMotorsports mag. They LOVED it-what a car!
Interesting that the Cobra Guys are going to smaller, more nimble cars.

Bud it's probably as fast as your Cobra and will certianly out brake and out corner it. They are pretty neat cars.

OK Chill – you are banned from any ACC adventure that leaves a road beginning with I. You can come to the drag strip, and you may keep your Hooters explore the cleavage card, barbeque is still on, but the rest is off limits. Now …. When do I go for a ride with you?
