Not sure if they still do it (I just moved back here from Vegas) but the virginia city hillclimb used to happen every year here as well. 6 miles of public road shut down by the local PD and used for racing exotics. Good times.

I did the hillclimb 17 yrs ago, a guy got screwed and reality reared its ugly head.....
It kinda took the wind out of my sails and I got real cautious...no fun.

My old RS 200E...It was hot as hell.

That is freaking awesome! I've never seen a sequential paddle shifter before. Do you have anymore info?

Does it send some kind of electrical impulse down to the shift linkage that is actuated somehow?

^^^ Congrats on your new sequential shifter! I am thinking of getting an exige s for track use and was wondering if you wouldnt mind pointing me in the right direction with regards to websites that I can research performance/suspension/etc parts. Thank you in advance, and enjoy your car in the best of health! Beautiful machine and excellent job building it sir!

Lotus Forum - Lotus Talk is probably the best forum. Best tuner bar none is Mach Motorsports in Dania Fl - call Carlos Cotto 954 330 5657. He has a steady stable of Exige work - mine is a 240 s with Aim dash, custom ecu tune by Charlie x, ss Larini headers, decat & sport exhaust, kevlar clutch & light weight flywheel, racing polyprop mounts, Moroso pan, traqmate, traqcam, schroth 6 points, tow hooks, Reverie intake - Carlos did all the work - about 300hp and reliable - pound for pound - dollar for dollar - an amzing car....
