Again Keith you rock. For me this is classic. Even if your using modern kit under the sheet metal. To the unknowing it makes no difference. To a car guy, you've respected a tradition and used your head to make the thing go faster while keeping the cost reasonable. 2 big thumbs up. If I'd known about these cars before I got into my GT6… Well… Nuff said. A.

Not a classic. Inspired or copied by or from a classic. Since its not a Lotus, its not a Lotus. Regardless, its a neat car. Leo

Colin Chapman got it right. Chapman's idea's of light weight and a strong, rigid chassis, proper suspension geometry is the way to build a high performance car. Chapman was considered a radical, mad man or even dis-respectful of British car design tradition. The race car world owes a lot to Chapman, he was the one who founded what we know today as the modern race car. Even 50 years after it's design solid rear axle en all, the 7 can be faster, quicker and great fun to drive compared to those over weight (3000+ lbs) sports car produced today. All of what is correct with the Lotus 7 is what is so wrong with many of todays sports cars.
