New to forums

Hello all. I'm a college student so as you probably guess right off the bat, I can't afford a lotus my self. However my family has owned 4 Lotus's (Eclat, Europa twin cam, Esprit S1, and most recently a Elan S2) so I have caught the Lotus bug. I'm an engineering student so I love to learn what I can about technical things and I figured what better place to come to than here. I look forward to talking to you all, and hopefully in the near future acquire a Lotus of my own.

-Spencer

Welcome Spencer. Your family have to get you an Elise/Exige to keep the family tradition going.

Welcome Spencer, if you hang around the technical forums here, you will hopefully gather a wealth of information. BTW, what engineering discipline are you studying.
Cheers,
Michael

Good luck with school - engineer here as well - though I rarely do it any more.

Uh Oh guys, it looks like our latest FNG is a legacy pledge. NO HAZING! (Not that he deserves it).

Great Screen Name!
