There is a BUZZ of activity at LotusCars USA. The very first Elise customerswill start receiving their new Lotuses in lateMay (around the same time as the WCLM).

Lotus introduced the US Elise to theLotus Dealers at the Barber MotorsportsPark just outside Birmingham, AlabamaMarch 29 and 30th. That was followed bytwo days of introduction to the Press.Dealers and the Press were wowed by thenew Lotus as they not only had theopportunity to drive the new car on track,but were shown the car’s true potential byLotus test Engineers, Roger Becker, AlisterMcQueen and Doc Bundy, ex-Lotus Racerwho took the SCCA World ChallengeChampionship in the X180R Esprit.

The new US Elise introduction beganwith a greeting by Arnie Johnson, Presidentof Lotus Cars USA. Following Arnie wasMark O’Shaughnessy, Director of Sales &Marketing who introduce the new Lotus.There were 9 break-out sessions thatcovered technical information and back-ground, aftermarket accessories (2 sportexhaust systems, Elise luggage, hard topstorage case, CD cases and more) and dealersupport information on marketing and sales.

Just prior to the cars getting load andtransported to Birmingham I was able tovisit LCU and had an opportunity to seeand drive a US Elise. Walking into thewarehouse has always been a treat, in thepast it’s housed Esprits, motorsport Elisesand a few 340Rs. But, this time it was fullof Elises, better yet these were USFederalized cars, legal for our US roads!

There before were 2 ArticSilver cars, 2 Racing Green,another in Ardent Red, SaffronYellow, a couple more inMagnetic Blue, Storm Titanium,Krypton Green, Aubergine andChrome Orange! Twelve cars intotal spread before me!

Three technicians fromHethel were busy preparing thecars for their job of impressingthe dealers and press. Every-thing was being checked and re-checked, nothing left to chance.

With that much activity Iwasn’t able to stand aroundwith my hands in my pocket.Dave Simkin, LCU TechnicalEngineer, took one look at meand screamed, “Kiyoshi, takeyour eff’ing hands out of yourpockets and pull the binnacleoff that Esprit!” So, much forstanding around, I was put towork prepping a couple ofEsprits for delivery to Canada.

Esprits sales have gotten brisk. Only 2more cars are enroute to LCU, And of the14 or so in the warehouse 10 were marked“Sold” to one of the dealers. Within 30-60days there won’t be any Esprits left at LCUand the last of the longest running Lotusmodels will be going out to some lucky newowner.

So the real reason (besides having to bein Atlanta for work) was not necessarily tohelp Dave Simkin. But, get the keys handedto me and one of the US cars pointed outfor a all too brief romp on the roads ofGeorgia.

Avid C/R readers will recall my reporton driving the 111S at the 2003 WCLM upin Portland. I reported,

“Every corner brought new respectand a true realization that it’s a driver’s car.It responds to your input and is forgiving. Ithas a very high threshold, one that if usedon the street would be much faster thanmight be considered safe. With more andsofter tire, the car would be AMAZINGLYfast. It’s no wonder Road & Track found theElise to out handle every car in the compari-son test last year.

During that drive on Portland Interna-tional Raceway, I also noted the V8 Espritwas walking away from me on everystraight. I was turning similar lap times, bybeing able to make up time under brakes andin the corners. But, it was very clear thatthe chassis could handle more power.

Given that I was driving on the street Icouldn’t drive the same way I did at PIR.But, there was the same feel of directness

and honesty to the controls. The brakepedal seemed a bit lighter and longer thanthe 111S, the US car having ABS, but heeland toe was still very easy.

I can say that the gearshift was 100%improved. It is still a bit long at throw formy taste, but it is crisp and has a nicemechanical feel.

The engine is incredibly flexible. Youcould easily drive the car around town onlyusing 1st, 3rd and 5th. I accidentally hit 5th

from 2nd, the RPMs dropped to about 2000and the car pulled without complaint or anysigns of lugging.

Where the 111S made you desire forpower, the Toyota engine spins and spins. Ioften found myself running at 4000 rpm andthought it was only 3000. Smooth. But,drop a gear or two and hit the throttle andthe beast emerges! A flap opens in theintake runner and there’s an attention gettingintake roar in the driver’s left ear, the tachspins up to 6200 rpm and the car rocketsforward! Bam! You’re at 8000 rpm. Bam!You hit the next gear and get shoved intoyour seat.

I was in 3rd gear up around 8000 rpm,the Elise was still pulling hard. I glancedown at the speedo and saw 95+ mph (in a45 zone). Effortless!

This new Lotus begs, no… BEGS!!!For track time!

The drive was over all too soon, butthe grin hasn’t worn off. I can’t wait to getmy car!!!

If for no other reason, you NEED toregister for the WCLM. LCU and oursponsoring dealers – BMC San Francisco,Smith Lotus (San Luis Obispo) and SiliconValley Auto Group will bring their democars for you to have the opportunity todrive or ride in the new Lotus. I guaranteethat it worth the price of admission. I can’timagine a better setting to enjoy this newLotus than Lake Tahoe.

As if launching a new model and doinga huge Press and Dealer launch weren’tenough to do… LCU is moving from theirhome of 5 plus years in Lawrencevilleacross the highway to Duluth! A largerbuilding, built to their specification, moreroom for parts, cars, servicing and offices.

Arnie gets a nice corner office with lotsof windows, the showroom with have alounge for waiting visitors, a nicelyappointed conference room and DaveSimkin gets a new larger training room.

LCU move in day is April 16th.

Thumbs Up Racingby Carter Alexander

At the Lotus Convention dinner inMonterey 1995, the year that Lotus wasthe featured marque, Mike Ostrov madethe comment that we Lotus owners arereally just honored custodians of theseexamples of the craft of Colin Chapman.Thus, passing one of them on toanother owner is serious business. Inmy case after retiring from vintage racedriving in September I began to think ofletting my Lotus Seven go. I wantedmore room in the garage for our 1961Lotus Elite and I no longer had need forour trusty Ford F250 “dualie” tow truckand the trailer which I bought fromBarry Spencer who used it to tow hisLotus the SCCA Solo 1 runoffs.

I purchased the car from RodneySmith back in 1985 in an amusing set ofcircumstances. I was having a businesschat with Rodney about the electronicsmarket in Europe at his company, Altera.He mentioned that he had a LotusSeven for sale and had an ad for it inAutoweek. As it happened I had justsold a Caterham Seven in the UK andwas thinking about getting a genuineLotus Seven for vintage racing in theUS. He said it was a nicely restoredexample that he’d planned to vintagerace but never got around to it and nowhe was culling his collection of cars. Igave it some thought and later that daystopped by to chat with John Streets onmy way to SFO to fly back to Englandthat evening. John told me “that’s abeautiful Seven, very nice bit of kit.” Ibegan focusing on it as I flew out with astopover in New York. By the time welanded at JFK my mind was made up.First I rang my wife Roberta from a payphone and told her about the Seven.Rodney’s price was about what we gotfor the Caterham so it looked like a greatidea as it was in effect a straight swap. Ithen called Rodney and told him Iwanted the car, Roberta would send acheck that day and I would collect it ina couple of weeks when I was back inthe Bay Area. Rodney said, “you meanyou want to come down and see it?”“No,” I said, “just take the ad out ofAutoweek and Roberta is sending you

the check.” He was puzzled by my nothaving seen it but frankly, John’ssupport made the difference and Ididn’t want to lose out on getting thecar. Sure enough when I first saw it afew weeks later in Rodney’s garage Iknew I had made a good decision. Idrove it back up to our home in Sonomawith a smile on my face all the way up101.

This 1964 Series II Seven isprobably one of the most original LotusSevens active in vintage racing on thewest coast. I didn’t care for seeing itshod with wider wheels, fat tires, widerfenders, cuts and chops here and there.So while it looks less “butch” than theothers on the grid with its narrow tiresand original fenders it is the real deal. Ithad been fitted with a very cleverremovable roll bar. Jack Fitzpatrickhelped me with the catch tanks and fivepoint belt fittings and we had a racerwhich we shared in our first weekend.Over the years since it was actually thefirst Lotus Seven accepted by CSRG in1986 I kept it as original as possible. Wehad some engine and gear box problemswhich Harry Cordellos was able to dealwith over the years and its now a veryreliable race car which can double as astreet machine. But we needed to put ina fuel cell as the back of a Seven is veryexposed leaving the stock fuel tankeasy to damage. It looked great in thegarage next to our Lotus Elite: mostpeople were surprised to learn that theElite is older than the Seven as theymake a bit of an odd pair. Sort of likeSort of Mutt and Jeff, Beauty and theBeast, Lady and the Tramp.

In January I chatted with MikeOstrov and Jim McClure about pricing

the “package” which would include theSeven plus the truck and trailer andcame up with a price which they boththought was fair and I began tocirculate word that the Seven wasavailable. I wasn’t in a hurry as I wasthinking of enjoying it in street formthis summer. But then I received anemail from Dave Thompson wanted tojoin CSRG and was in the market for aLotus Seven to begin vintage racing.He came up to Sonoma to see it oneSaturday to check it out with CSRGPorsche 356 driver, Phil Trenholme andcame up the next weekend to collect it.Dave was looking for a Seven andneeded a trailer and tow truck so it wasa good situation for him, plus as he isabout my size he also bought myhelmet, driver’s suit, shoes and gloves.When he came up to Infineon for theCSRG 2004 season opener I am sure itmust have confused our revered trackannouncer, Mary Lou Robson whenshe saw him on the pre-grid as ofcourse it looked like I was behind thewheel.

Dave is a mechanical engineer byprofession and has a measured ap-proach to things which you wouldexpect. He drove well in his first event,decreasing his lap times in everysession and staying out of trouble. I amdelighted that the car is in good handsand I’ll be able to see it on the track infuture CSRG events. And so thecustodianship of the Seven has beenpassed to the right hands and as SidGage mentioned when Dave’s applica-tion for the car’s acceptance wassubmitted, “it’s good to see that the carwill stay in the club.”

The day had perfect weather.Sunny and warm but not hot.There were 55 drivers and 50 cars, arecord hight for thenumber of cars.

The Lotuses in attendance:Steve Trackman, Lotus EliseDavid Platt, Esprit S4SScott Hogben, Europa TCAlan Franck, Lotus 41John Zender, Europa (Ford Rangerpower: “The Flamer”)David Anderson, Elan S4

The Lotus 41 had early fuel pickupproblems, but they were able to correctit and ran well in the afternoon. The caruses old Lucas mechanical fuel injec-tion.

Scott Hogben started losing his hisright rear wheel bearing in the morning,but didn’t diagnose until he got to thegas station in Willows on the wayhome. He drove the car home with therear end steering all crazy. Probablytrashed the entire corner.

David Anderson noticed a slightcarb change just after the noon break,and saw the Stombergs were ‘leaningback’ as the top nuts seemed to havebacked off (even with nylock nuts...).All TwinCam Stomberg owners knowthat the carbs are bolted over O-rings,providing a small amount of flex so thefuel does not foam due to enginevibration. The front carb tightened upok to the required specification, but therear pinched the O-ring. The rear carbhissed like a very angry snake... SoDavid loosened the carb enough toremove the broken O-ring then tight-ened it up metal-to-metal. No audible airleak. At idle it was slightly rough. Butgood enough for Judy and Dave todrive home, finally leaving at 2PM.David has a trailer on order for trackdays now.

A “Radical” (a sports racer) seemedthe fastest car on track. The radical is atwo seater powered by a 1300CCKawasaki.

No official Bozo’s (which by trackday rules is anyone who spins or goesoff in the first session), but there was areport of a guy spinning in the firstsession.

Two different BMW’s had theirhoods release on track. One race carand one street car. The race car trashedit’s windshield and crept around to getback to the paddock. Looking out theside window with the hoodcompletely covering the windshield.

We opened the third floor of thenew building for a great view of thetrack. The track looks completelydifferent from up there. You can viewabout 80% of the pavement. It’s awonderful viewing site. (The fourth andsecond floors are reserved for SCCA/race folks at all times, they are neveropened to visitors.)

John Zender fitted new front brakecalipers and dropped about 2 secondsoff his lap times running 2:13.0 Thebrakes are much improved but he stillhas more work to do on them. Johnpunched a small hole in his oil pan inhis driveway on Saturday before theevent. Gooped it up on Sunday with theRight Stuff. Punched a BIG hole in it onMonday at the same spot in hisdriveway and had to goop an aluminumcover plate over it for the event. TheRight Stuff is definitely the right stuff.

Track Day: John is fitting a lower profile oil panthat Caterham is selling for the 2.3LFord Duratec. John will probablylighten the flywheel, ceramic coat theexhaust, and plate and powdercoata few things for the Reno event.

Very few spins considering thenumber of cars out there. Probablyonly about 7 or 8 total all day.

J.C. Gauthier ran well in his newFerrari 355 Spyder F1, and for the firsttime, beat his old lap times from hisEsprit V8. Sold his yellow Esprit to aguy in Portland, but it may make anappearance at Reno. The 355 has newred paint and a roll cage.

A great day. You should try comingout too.——end

Hey Elise Fanatics,The Lotus Show at Donington was a great mix of all that is Lotus. Those Brits

are fanatics. Many of the Elises in the lot did not have their tops. It was cold (40-50deg F) with some drizzle. I’ve never seen somany guys walking around with driving/race shoes in one place! Very cool. Check out some show pictures below.

Did you know that a similar event will soon take place in CA? Scroll down to find info and a link to the 2004 West CoastLotus Meet.

One of the best parts of my trip to England was meeting with several companies to examine their capability and productofferings. Needless to say I was quite impressed with the product expertise and enthusiasm that exists for the Elise. As aresult, we will soon be offering more properly engineered products for your ‘lil Elise.

The Lotus Show is made up of various Lotus parts suppliers, tuners, dealers, clubs and enthusiasts. It is held once peryear approx. 2 hrs north of London. The Convention hall is set on the grounds of Donington Park which also boasts a racetrack and an excellent grand prix museum.

The show had a very informal and friendly feel to it. Lotus’ from every vintage were on display or in the parking lot. A truefeast for any Lotus lover. Well worth a trip. Combine it with a tour of Hethel and a ‘Scare Yourself Sensible’ driving school andit will be Lotus trip you’ll never forget!

Rapier racing is saddened to announce the untimelypassing away of co-founder and driver Zack Zarcadoolas.

Zack died of a heart attack in the early hours of themorning of the 13 April 2004 at his home in Douglasville,Georgia.

In the late 60’s and early 70’s Zack won Champion-ships in both Formula Car and Production Based Vehiclesracing in SCCA and FIA series. For 20 years Zack leftracing and after leaving a division of B.F. Goodrich asMarketing Director formed his own company. Returningto racing he won the 1996 Sprint Challenge Championshipin a Lotus Esprit X180R, driven a Porsche in Grand-AmCup in 2000, and raced all types of sports cars over theyears, including prototypes. He was an active participantin vintage and historic racing – always at the helm of aLotus. Zack was an instructor with both Panoz andPorsche driving schools.

Zack was the president of Lotus Limited Southeast(LLSE) for many years as well as being the President forthe national Lotus club ‘Lotus Limited’. He organized thenational Lotus Owners Gathering (LOG) in 1996 and 1998.Many Lotus Limited Club members memory of Zack washis driving skill in the hot laps he often gave to clubmembers.

Arnie Johnson CEO of Lotus Cars USA counted Zackas a good friend, “if you were in trouble and had only onephone call, you could not do worse than call Zack.” Arniealways found him to be particularly loyal to the Lotusmarquee. In particular giving his time to help the Lotusname, “he had assisted LCU with many projects and hadnever taken a nickel,” said Arnie Johnson.

Zack, Charles Rayhall, and long time friend KirtWightman founded rapier racing in 2003. The goal of theTeam was to showcase the final edition of the timelesslybeautiful Lotus Esprit V8 and bring Lotus back to theconsciousness of North American motorsport fans. Theteam was on a steep learning curve, but Zack felts thatthe hardest work was behind us, and looked forward tothe rest of the season.

Zack will be remembered as a great driver, agreat all-around guy, and a Lotus man to the core.He will be sorely missed buy his team, his friendsand anyone who had the pleasure of his company.

His wife, Cynthia, his son and his mother,survives Zack. Our thoughts are with them, andthat in time their grief will be replaced by warmmemories of their life together.

As per Zack’s wishes, there will be nomemorial service, however, condolences for thefamily should be sent to Rapier Racing LLC, 6209Oak Ridge Commerce Way, SW Austell, GA 30168.
