Time Attack Oulton Park (Lotus Content)

There are quite a few more Exiges competing in the Time Attack series this year in the RWD class

Lifting the front wheel on the straight just before the pit entrance!!

Great timing on the Mini photo John, if that had been an Elise it would be up for the Xmas calendar.

Thanks guys - next round at Knockhill on the 16th May. Looking at the lap times some of the Exiges (Honda supercharged by the looks of things) are just as quick as some of the big power 4WD cars.

Andy - I'm not sure that drift car was even on full lock ;) The camber on some of them is brutal as well, tyres can't last more than a few runs.

Gugliemi's S1 is an Audi last time I looked - with Nitrous as anti-lag as well... Significantly north of 500bhp IIRC. You'd imagine the white one is the same, given the Cosworth sponsorship that they share with Steve, gawd knows about the S2 though.

Gugliemi's Exige is indeed Audi turbo charged with nitrous (I think someone mentioned 600+), but the white one is Honda supercharged I believe, as I had a little nosy around in the engine bay when it was in the pits. Cosworth are a series sponsor, and all the cars have their logo on the bonnet :)

The write up for the white one on SELOC was good. But blimey, you'd have to be pretty commited to cut your rear clam in such a way. :shock: The car spec does sound awesome though. :)
