Tony
There wasn't a passenger in the Lotus; fortunately he was out there on his own.

Gareth
I'll ask Matt for you but don't forget this is a drag car and the cooling requirements maybe very different to that of a road car so the undertray may well have been launched.

I drove down with that Exige. He is mates with someone I know. No idea how he binned it though and if he had a passenger with him. A bit silly though, on a day like that isn't it!

Did this happen on the 100 circuit? .. I saw a big set of marks where a car had spun into the armco.

No it was on the 200 mate. Gary has said he lost it on the pit straight right hander after clipping the curb. Not sure if he had a passenger though.

Thanks mate, seems a bit odd to fit a vmount in a drag car though.

It didn't look very much like a drag car to me with that massive wing!

Hi guys, the orange Rex (Roxy ) is used as a bit of an all rounder at the mo. I've used it a couple of times at the drag strip but the previous owner was heavily into his track racing. The rear wing was bolted back on for yesterday's display.

There is no under tray at present on it. Any further questions please feel free to ask.

Brilliant

Thanks Matt (I presume this is Matt!

)

Just for the record what kind of times have you established on the 1/4 mile please?

What power and boost is it running mate? Who built and mapped it?

Was very nice buy the way. Lots of tasty parts
