Lotus LMP2 'this is it'

[robmlufc]

It looks like the Rebellions will be wearing the famous black and gold aswell!! Those Lolas will look stunning in those colours I reckon.

[Red Firecracker]

Indeed, so a Lotus that's not a Lotus will also be a Lotus that's really not a Lotus either. I think.

Shame really, as the Rebellion livery is one of the very nice contemporay colour schemes.

well it this means more resources for the team they have my backing they have been a good supporter of sportscar racing and have been one of my favourite teams over the last few years good luck to them

Rebellion will become the official Lotus entry and Kolles a customer programme where the Lotus name will draw the punters/drivers in... (Remember what LOTUS stands for Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious)

shame loved the red white gold livery and I don't like the black and gold...

[Red Firecracker]

Well they could stay with red white and gold and retain the Lotus livery link. I always preferred the Gold Leaf livery to the JPS.

Yep, another one that is totally anachronistic! My Fords (and Lotus) have been paragons of reliability. In fact I have never driven anything I would describe as unreliable. Maybe I am just a good driver!

Fix It Again Toni.

Well you did ask.

I think the Evora GT2 cars lived up to the acronym perfectly. I felt genuinely sorry for the mechanics last year.

Hi Ahonen. I reckon for a brand new car, their reliability wasn't actually that bad. The amateurs bent them quite a bit but their main problem was they were just way to slow so they couldn't compete. Luxury Racing had more of a shocker in my opinion, given the cars and drivers they had they seemed to have no end of trouble keeping them running. Might be just a different way of recollecting things and I know that you know a thing or two about working hard in a race team!

I know from the team manager who is a good friend that they worked their socks off - the Road Atlanta stewards said they had bever seen anything like. Bear in mind that Jetalliance is a small team trying to run two unreliable cars - despite the promises from Lotus that the cars would be fully tested and therefore "fast and reliable" they kept going - what Lotus sold the programme as was obviously not true

I still prefer the original Rebellion livery. The black and gold is swiftly becoming 'rent-a-livery', especially now the Evora will wear it as well.

[thanetspeedshop]

Ironically the original Rebellion livery would've made a pretty good match with the older Gold Leaf Lotus cars:

that re gold white is a classy look black and gold awful in my book no matter what F1 P1 P2 Indy GT3
