I've been experiencing fuel starvation on high speed left hand turns, specifically Thunderhill turn 2 and 8, with 2/3 tank full.
I brought the Exige in to the dealer (still under warranty until August) for a few issues and was told that the fuel starvation problem is not warrantied unless it can be proven in city streets.
Called Lotus USA for explanation. They are well aware of this problem but Warranty rep + supervisor both insisted that it's a "street" car (I tried to reason with them but EVERY answer was, it's a "street" car).
They need me to prove it on the street. Not only will it be impossible to repeat this safely on city streets but they won't allow me to take the mechanic to a empty parking lot to show what's going on. "It's autocrossing" they claim and warranty does not apply.
Is this correct? Does this sound fair?
Aren't Exiges designed/intended for the track? Having "track pack" option doesn't mean much either.
Oh, and they offered to sell me a "track" gas tank.... sweet.
