    Hand Brake Dragging on Track

    Low dust brake pad options

    Thanks, just went on before reading the Hawk write up. That was really good thanks. I am getting to the point it may be worth swapping pads when going to the track.

    Hand Brake Dragging on Track

    Hi Everyone, Only tracked the car twice, both times this has occurred. For those of you who have actually used the brakes to the maximum capability on a track day have you found any issues with the rear Brake handbrake dragging. I am assuming from thermal expansion. First stop is of course...

    Touring shocks swap for sorts shocks.

    I know what you mean coming from Radicals and Formula3 which Covid screwed up for me. Tyre wise Ive gone to the Conti SC 7's and its a massive improvement over the Goodyears. 5-6secs at Morgan Park. Probably 3 secs in the tyres and 3 secs in Driver confidence.

    Touring shocks swap for sorts shocks.

    Carbon Ceramic Brakes for Lotus Emira

    More the fact of this and do you get 3 to 4 times the life out of it to justify cost. Then it comes down to do you want that level of performance added with the unsprung weight saving or spend the money on some Magnesium rims instead???? And here I am thinking I wont be modifying this car lol

    Lotus - summary of financial situation

    Yes, still wonder what some of these current CEO's are thinking, eg, no idea. My simply business rule has always been simple. "Take care of your staff, take care of your customers and the money comes" Most CEOs these days are simply woke people who did an MBA and with no real idea how the...

    Lotus - summary of financial situation

    Me as CEO Drop the Electric cars now and all costs associated with it. It could be resurrected in the future if required.!!!!! Look at viability of PEV or anything for the Eletre and get an SUV out there. Seems to be the approach that has save other brands. Spend the effort on turning the Emira...
