I have had enough. When I dont have my car, I see loti everyware. I am especially wound up by the georgeous blue sport racer with type 23 style stripes that looks a lot like my car. That has gone past me 3 times.

Will you guys pack it in.

I know how you feel. Since I sold my Exige last week I seem to keep seeing Lotuses everywhere. I keep going to flash my lights and wave then have to stop myself.

I rang my dealer today to try and get a firmer date for my new one but no news as yet.

When is it coming back gooby? Get those new tyres on and book up a track day dude. Did my first at Brands on Friday and ohmygod how much fun. You thought a Walshy day was fun... it'll soon be back and badder than ever.

Worse when you sell it and you see the new owner driving your car..... was less upset when I saw my ex-wife with her new man

The guys are working thier tails off so it will be ready for the BoLOC's first birthday. I really want to start doing a few track days. Silverstone as a co-driver was just incredible.

Sworks - come on - the safest track in the UK and the LOT guys are well behaved. They do not tolerate any unsafe driving. Your car and you will be fine.

Lets make it a good team day.

S Works get yourself on track m8 now that you've already popped your "track cherry" ... especially since you're gonna drive all the way to Bedford then have a go on the track ... the others will tell you what Bedford is like ... it would be good to see your car in action in it's natural habitat

Go on you know you want to

Im doing Bedford this coming Saturday (as well as Good Friday).

Will ask them what noise level I record and post it back here for info. Assuming they don't tell me anyway whilst putting the red sticker on!

Im running Stage 1 and Pipercross by the way.
