snapped a few off the other day, nothing extremely professional, but I think I found a new spot to try out.....

Updates
-Fujita intake installed (screams)
-Interior pieces painted to match body color
-brake calipers painted
-black wheel caps going on tomorrow
-Lotus logo valve stem caps (for shows only)

Ended up having to get a refund for the wing I bought, damaged one wasnt replaced and its been over a month (they still havent even picked up the old one.) so the search is back on to find a suitable wing.

Very nice looking ride!!! what are the performance upgrade plans?? what do they run stock in the 1/4 12's???

The only other thing I have performance wise is a race header, I really dont plan to go much further than that....a Supercharger would be a stretch, but maybe at some point. Stock 1/4 is right around 13.3 - 13.5. I would imagine with intake, KDW2's, Exedy clutch and Toda flywheel I 'd get pretty low into the 13's and with the race header and good conditions, crack off a 12 sec run

COol, either way love the looks of the lotus.... Supercharger would be sweet, and a turbo would be straight up sick!

turbo packages are VERY pricey, even the SC kit is $5K which is why I doubt I will be going after it.

saving + hold em,omaha, stud, pai gow, etc. Dont do the poker thing anymore because it turns out I like sleep and not having to worry. But from a rare time to time i still make my way down to poto.

That and the fact it probably looks like more than what I paid for it.

Here's a used one for 31,500 I think they sell new for like 70? Awesome little cars, have only seen one or two of them on the road around here before. LOTS of them in Miami :)
