1) Insulate the cockpit from Solar (3M Crystalline Tint) & Convected (insulate sills) heat.
2) Replace evaporator thermostat with an upgraded electronic version to prevent freeze up.
3) Increase airflow into cockpit by removing both driver & passenger side footwell intake panels & blocking 2 outside air intakes in nose.

sweet. although for a car described as adding practicality to the lotus sports car i can see the center seat making it more complex to get in and out of than the elise/exige.

So this is some random guy making a design? Overall not bad. Thought it was way too squished in the video then I realized it actaully was squished (must have been widescreen then got disproportioned on youtube).

Although didn't the F1 have problems with that seat layout for US regulation? Something with the air bags? Maybe because the F1 had none, but would pass with 3 airbags

I agree with the Eclipse comment, and I'm just throwing this out there, but... does Lotus read the "Worst E-names Thread"? And then pick the choiciest?
