Vmax was on again. And as before, their car failed miserably.

I couldn't believe they'd done so much work on the engine and then gearbox and hadn't given the clutch the once over when trying to do 200 in a heavily modded turbo V8 Esprit

Quite interesting what they did in the wind tunnel though.

It was just part of the story of the Lotus. That is where they were going to first test it, but the gearbox gave up (again) on the way there!
