While I've been away - Lotus Evora - Emagine - 24 Jul 2008

Hi guys,

Well I've not really been around much of late and I was gutted I missed the DOC event in norfolk but I've kind of been working on a secret project which I can now talk about now that its out in the public domain.

Jonny's been working on it with me too.

If you go to www.lotusevora.com and go to "multimedia" and then the "videos" section you'll see a little bit of the fruits of our labour.

If you get a chance to get to the motor show at earls court check out the lotus stand and you'll see the 10min version playing on the stand Smile

Jonny shot the stuff at MIRA or Proving ground as it says in the video.

here's some pics anyway from the motor show and stuff

Glad your gonna have a bit more time on your hands again. I was chatting to a guy from the factory the other week about yourself and the new car (his had broken down) they were all very exited about the launch this week.

What a memorable project! Surely that has to have been one of the best to date!

Pistonheads has picked up on it too:-

Im so tempted by that Big Grin

I tell ya,
I was privileged enough to be taken round the nurburgring in the prototype car last month on the closed industry day session.

Probably one of the best things I've ever been able to do... a real once in a life time experience.

The braking power of this car is phenomenal! I've been in some racey cars before but nothing like this.
Its one of the things they have really focused on apparently. They call it a primary safety feature. Amazing brakes, quick direction change and quick throttle response. Then you can be where the accident is.

Seriously Dan.... be very tempted! Wink
Best lotus interior ever too I think!
