Would have been great to see you.

Put 340 miles on her...and she exceeds my expectations. I'm thinking of getting another 2Eleven -- got to have a spare car. After all, you can't have too many track cars, can you?

Hey Jack, was your 211 set w/ 0 front camber from the factory? is -1 deg. still max.

Jack that is so awesome! Hopefully I'm out with you on track next week!

No, it came pretty well set up... about 1.4 negative. Maximum front negative camber can be set at 2.0-2.1 negative with the stock steering arms, which are different (a beautiful milled item vs cast) than what comes on the normal Elise/Exige. Certain upper suspension items are also different allowing you to run as low as 90 mm -- factory recommends a ride height of 100 mm front and 110 mm rear.

Jack,

Already ordered the Lotus Sport engine mounts from the dealer and the Larini 6" Club Sports exhaust from Shinoo. I had the same "oversteer" impression to the car and especially your "turn-in" experience. Shinoo is currently working on quick ratio steering for all of the Elise varients. I told him that if adapted to the 2-Eleven, a first hot lap by a former Elise/Exige owner could become tragic with the 2-Eleven's current light steering! I'm 6'-02". My head buffets considerably more than it does in my 23B. Lotus has a slightly taller windscreen at a $$$$$$$ price but I don't think that is the answer. I understand that the optional $$$$$$$$$ tonneau cover makes a considerable difference in reducing wind turbulance around the driver's helmet. It wouldn't be a Lotus without some trial and error!

Now get it to the track... break-in photos from the last two days.

Hey Jack, I think I spotted you today.

Lotus 2Eleven in Chrome Orange on an open trailer being towed by a white Ford (or Chevy?) truck going North on the 101 Freeway around 7:30AM close to Westlake Village.

Looks like they pimped out the calipers. They are not painted yellow from the factory.
