AHhhhh I picked up my car on Wednesday finally! I am in awe!
i got some bids today to install the i-pod wiring , hopefully running it to the little cubby benieth the starter button if the guy can snake the wire over to it.
I also got a bid of 150 -175 to paint the center consol yellow like the HRM special car, i like that look, was the cubby at the end of that consol between the seats also painted? i intend to paint that as well, i am going to go smooth gloss look
now about the chemical smell radiating off the plastics and composites! how long does it take for it to go away! it starts to give me a headache! right now i have the roof on which maybe part of the concentration levels, i know a few of you men/women have had thier cars for a while, has the strong fiberglass/plastic odor dissapated yet?
other then that i love the car!
I met Brian Redman today his company sets up racing events and some drivers training one on one and group, check out his site www.gorace.com He might be a great guy to do a lotus event at Road Atlanta, Sebring or Moroso since he is here in Vero Beach, FL Impressive collection of trophy's and memoribilia he has, a true champion driver and a really nice man. I bet if we had enough interest with or without Lotus USA support he would be willing to do something with the Lotus groups out there if we had enough participation.
