The World's Fastest Lotus? - YouTube

Better horsepower per lb than a Veyron :cool1:

Frank's Lotus makes 680 wheel horsepower with a twin-charged 1.8L engine; giving it a better power-to-weight ratio than Mario Andretti's Formula One Lotus.

Nice.

I would like to drive that car.

Unfortunately, I would not fit. :(

Taught 2 Porsche Turbo drivers today to be MUCH MUCH faster than they were with their morning instructors. :yesnod:

I'm pretty sure we have 2 new regulars to our events. :hurray:

Both of them in their $165,000 cars got immensely faster with my instruction, but in the end, the C6Z blew both of them away and left them breathless. They both want more. :yesnod:

The faster of the two drivers ran an 81 second lap. The other was 85. Mine ran 69. :leaving:

I did not drive either of their cars. I'm pretty sure I will be allowed to the next time they come out. One manual, one automatic. Both fun, but I'll still take the manual. :yesnod:

That car is awesome. I want one

That is AWESOME. Wow. Forget horsepower to weight ratio....what's the horsepower to DISPLACEMENT ratio?? That's ridiculous!!

I wonder where Frank flaps his gums these days... he's banned from a few different forums I know of, for spewing crap at people, challenging them to races and then backing out when they *surprise* don't want to race on Mullholland Drive and suggest a more secluded bit of tarmac, one that he doesn't drive all weekend, every weekend. Then he goes to a different forum and drops a crock about these guys who don't feel like racing 1000hp cars against his Elise up a crowded, heavily patrolled public road being cowards.

Nice car, but the guy is a f*cking twinkie.

It was born an Elise.

I could of used this on my trips through the Catskills, Adirondack, and Green Mountains this weekend.

The SI did alright, but I was craving some more power :drivingskid:

That's him. He also accused Allan of attempting to run him over, but when the video came out it showed him jumping towards Allan's car, then he went to F-Chat and started calling people out and got banned there. He's also banned from 6Speed, or TeamSpeed or L4P or one of those douchbag wannabe forums, for the same thing, lying and trolling.

The guy is a DCV-level schmuck. Sometimes doucherockets drive/build nice cars.

Sounds like he belongs on a forum that most people here just browse these days.

I'm ApexOversteer everywhere I go. I don't post much on L-Power, I prefer the vintage Lamborghini discussion on F-Chat.

[Rotorhead]

Cool car! Bad commentator.

[Joecooool]

Having owned more than one Elise and more than one 700 hp car, I'd say that combination is something that will eventually kill the driver.

I would not mind going out that way. Beats wasting away in a nursing home...

From the sound of things I'd think being an asshole will get him killed first.

Yeah, but he's also a coward.

I would imagine he'll end up hitting a bicycle rider, or tourist, or fly off the canyon somewhere around Mulholland.

What are the odds and who's playing bookie?

Ok Ok, so I was out cruising my Porsche in the land of fruits and nuts, and just felt like putting this annoying ricer into the wall.

The f'ker wouldn't stop trying to race me. I mean what would you have done? :confused5:

[ApexOversteer]

I wonder what his insurance adjuster will think when he gets a look at the car. I'm sure the jackhole has disclosed all the mods, and the non-DOT tires...

BTW: He wasn't hit from behind, he changed lanes into the other car. His story is slightly different depending on what forum you're reading. In one he says the Porsche did him "like a PIT maneuver", and he mentions "tire marks down the side of the car" in others.

I'm betting he was racing the Porsche, and the Porsche was going for the left hand lane the same time jackhole went for it, without checking his blind spot.

[Nemesis]

His engine builder doesn't even speak highly of him.


I find it interesting that he is pushing 700hp but is still running 4 lug wheels.
