Lotus at play.

The two superlap Lotuses spent last weekend at Eastern Creek competing in the GT Championship. The yellow one set a new racing lap record in of 1:33.45. The blue one (with Scott Bargwana at the wheel) did a qualifying time of 1:34.43.

Here they are going at it for 12 laps against each other as well as a bunch of Lambos, Ferraris, Aston Martins and some German cars that were so slow you wouldn't know they were even there:

Thanks for the vid mate, downloading now :laugh:

These pesky Lotuses are out there a lot, and now ticking off some big guns, they might end up same fate as Farlap. Tell em not to go to USA and compete or they might get poison fuel or worse.

Seriously though they obviously have an awesome car to start with, but still hats off to them as still top driving and set up and prep, it is no walk in the park.

I am typing whilst waiting for vid to download and should be good.

Most definately, they look like an awesome car to drive. Pity I would never have a hope of fitting in one... oh, and pity about the cost :(

Though having said that I'm pretty sure you could do a HP setup for the cost of a lot of GT-R's getting round, if you were to base it on an elise, put a hard top on it and then do the usual upgrades along with the engine conversion.

*checks bank balance*

Dang...

Dirtgarage give it up will you backyard Bob, try hard, talk it up. Dirtgarage seems to stand for dirt slinger of others and claim to fame. It is a self image thing I guess. Everyone is sick of it and not in the good light. I don't claim to know everything unlike some.

Failed cop unlikely but sounds good, I give everything I do 100% unlike others who bla bla.

You don't have your business or semi backyard business registered, and have no qualifications? to work on cars, or engines. MVIRA take action with guys like you. So I would tread carefully I would think, rather than slandering most performance shops and people like you do, and get warned by moderators, who put up with a lot. Even attempting to insult John Boston on this forum asking him if he is stupid or illiterate. It is people like John and his many contacts that we really need and should appreciate. You are undermining the efforts most are doing to promote this Superlap deal, you probably have about the least experience in circuit racing yet the biggest voice, it is clasisc.

Fun is fun but keep it clean will you and stop the insults and false claims and accusations.

Get your foot out of your mouth Paul. This kind of crap is unwanted by pretty much every single person here.

Ahh just giving him a little poke, maybe that one was a little hard...but, he seems to like it...as he returns the favor from time to time.

delete it if you like

But c'mon..Farlap?...its something every naturalised Australian should know (i think its even in the citizenship test)

Apoligies JP...was indeed a bit below the belt having a dig at your choice of career's...'im extending an olive branch to you'

BTW John, my business partner is a Licenced Automotive Repairer and Engine Reconditioner and is registered with the Motor Traders Association. Defamatory remarks about my business on this forum is against the forum rules and moderators will issue you with a warning for such behaviour....if they are consistent. So be careful.

Hey the drag racing 'smack talk' threads are some of the most light hearted and amusing on here. You roundy roundy boys are always in reading them.

But yes personal insults are a bit low and feel a tad of regret for stooping that low. Sorry again JP

Where were you Roy? I was still hard charging after 3 am Saturday night....and that was with next to no sleep Friday night. Bit hard to have a big night when your almost staying in the outback.
