Speaking of HPT, the calendar for the Wed afternoon track session is out. They moved up the start time to 3 p.m. and bumped up the cost a bit. Darksol and I went quite a few times last year, it's a good way of spending a few laps on the track.

So am I the first one in Oklahoma here? I haven't seen any other Lotus, much less an Elise or Exige in OK. I have heard that there was possibly one in Oklahoma City, but the guy said he might have just been passing though on I-44, I-40, or I-35 because he didn't have Oklahoma plates (neither do I right now, but that should be taken care of next week).

Woo Hoo!!! Another Elise in Oklahoma!!!! I'm just down the road in Tulsa. I've had my '05 since March. I used to have a MINI so I run around with the OKMINI crowd a bunch and make it over to OKC now and then for drives. Glad to see there's someone else 'nearby'!!

No Elise yet, but considering it. Hoping for a local dealer.

MidRivers isn't that far, much closer to you than I. Don't let that be the the reason you're waiting.

I guess this isn't the most active thread on the site!! I got my '05 Elise in many pieces in November '07 and got it on the road for this spring. I live in North Dakota and I know there is one Exige in Fargo (Hi Shane!!)... I have owned a number of interesting cars through the years but have never had a vej=hicle that can change my attitude in quite the same way as this little guy!

Would be interested to get some feedback on Midwest Lotus service ....it's gonna be a long drive.... Wooo Hooo!!
