A location with historical Lotus background.

I also have a weak spot for gold wheels! Please share more photos of these wheels, especially on the road. :)

It's not directly Lotus related, but I needed to have these: https://www.nike.com/de/t/gato-schuh-b3TJGDKe/IB8509-001 These shoes are tiny though. Usually I have EU44 / US 10 and mines are now EU45 / US 11 and are still a tight fit.

I am sorry, but that's not true I'm afraid. I measured my Emira V6 with 11,2s for the 100-200kph run, see attached graph: This is 3rd and 4th gear, it's taking me 0,3-0,4s for the shift. I needed 11,2s for the run. The above shown Emira does this in 8,7s! That's a whole 2,5s faster, let alone...

It's all about the money, it can be done surely: https://www.komo-tec.com/en/Komo-Tec-double-clutch-transmission-IDS/2205-011-IDS-P-EV

Very impressive times! 8,7s for the 100-200kph run! Makes me wanting a software upgrade for my V6 manual... :oops:

I have no experience with Dragy, only with my performance box which has three suction mounts for the windshield. But there are Facebook groups where Dragy results are shown on a regular basis and this looks quite fun. I think this Dragy box is just a GPS "mouse" and the rest is done within the...

If you can get your hands on a dragy you will get comparable data, also for further steps and you don't need do dyno to see any gains. That's at least my approach. I found the graphs from my two stock runs (3rd+4th gear and only 4th for the whole rpm band)...

These seem to be very impressive times. I measured my bone stock Emira V6 manual with 11,2s for the 100-200km/h run with a performancebox from Racelogic.

I‘m a little biased, but I still think that the Vauxhall VX220 / Opel Speedster has a truly classic and timeless shape. It has a more masculine appeal compared to the more rounded Elises.
