Sorry I haven't checked my pm for awhile, I'll try to reply a bit quicker in the future.
Glad to hear there more Lotuses around AL. Do you autocross with SCCA? I've just been doing track events with PCA but I have been thinking about trying some others like Chin or Zoom. I got started with PCA when I waywardly had a Porsche. I have since corrected my ways fortunately. I started autocrossing this year as well and enjoy it nearly as much as the track- nearly but not quite as much.
When events get going next season, if you or some of the other Lotus folks are going to an event in central/north AL or GA let me know. It would be great to have Elises, Exiges and an Evora playing together.
Some friends of mine saw a red Elise in Cullman with the tag "xlent". Any one you know?
