Took mine out, and had a fantastic time, but was aware that tyres werent hooking up to the road as normal.
Am putting this down to ambients, and will be reducing leptons accordingly.
Advise all to do the same.

get tyre warmers and let them set off the A1 only for you yust to keep the temp in your tyres :0)
seen this in bankok.
was there 2 years ago and the main driveway was empty. empty ? it's never empty. or only when the king passes. after 1/2 an hour 3 lotusses and a few ferrari's passed by.
beiing on the lotus forum i posted it within 1 hour and had a reply from one of the lotus owners in bankok.
they do this a few times a year. needless to say that we normal people wouldnt be able to pull this off.
