If anyone is interested I did google it and they have all the colors of the anniversery car, ours is the Lotus Racing Green w/yellow stripes, like I said and its really sweeeeeeeet

I had my chance to drive an Elise out there last year but didn't feel right doing it, especially since I didn't really know the guy, but his passenger didn't know too much about cars though. He thought my MINI should've kept up better with an Elise...:shrug: Well, lets see:

Mini Cooper "S" FWD and about 2600lbs w/ about 2/3 of its weight over the front wheels

Lotus Elise is 1976lbs and has about a 50/50 weight distibution...hmmm!

Anyways, if given the chance again I'll do it because I'm very comfortable with these cars now, bring it on!!!

Hey Trey, did you map out those "other" roads for us to run on Friday afternoon? That sounded like a good time, what do you guys think:shrug:

 

[tigerbalm]

There is a good possiblity i might be able to make it this time. i've got a guy now that can probably cover for me that weekend. Only thing is if its too busy i wont be able to make it. so lets hope its a slow weekend or i can find someone for backup.
