Take a look at my Superlite

I'm going through a lot of medical issues so I have to sell my car. I need to get into something less wild. This car is scary fast! The Car was built by Tony Vaccaro president of Loony's car club back in 2011. He built it for a very close friend who passed away shortly after the car was built. Tony garaged it and maintained the car in a heated garage keeping it in immaculate condition until I purchased it later with only 3500 k on it. It currently has 5050 K. 2010 Caterham R 400 2.0 Duratec Producing 265 HP. The Avon ZZ are in excellent shape with plenty of wear. It has a 9 gallon bladder fuel cell which will have to be replaced soon. The window washer is not hooked up and will need to be replaced. It will come with a roof and side panels for weather running. Spare luggage tire rack that can be reattached. Livery is the popular British racing green with yellow stripe. I'm willing to trade for an Evora if someone has one. I'm asking $50000 K

That's what I have and I'm happy with the Hagerty coverage. But, and its a big but! Very expensive! Combine the cost of tires entree fee and all the bits and pieces needed for a nice day at the track and if your not in a yearly club where expenses are paid yearly, you will have to pay for track day weekend fees. It can be costly and it makes you think. Maybe I can get away without track day coverage?

When they ask me that question I just say read my plate.

Is this really a fear? I don't mean to sound negative but do you have some stats to address this problem? I will soon be getting rid of my bladder because of age, and problems with my gas gauge. So if it's a serious problem I won't replace it with a new bladder.

I ordered a new oil gauge for my 7 from Rocky Mountain Caterham. . My grievance is what happened to the price when it arrived. The original cost of the gauge was $175.00. When it arrived with the added tariff cost of $55.00, the shipping cost to me was another $12.00. My $175.00 cost ended up being $242.00! I'm not besmirching Rocky Mountain Caterham, they are a fantastic company and they need to make a profit. This is not a rant but it should be. Be aware of the new tariffs.

I would like to update my current data system without taking out a second mortgage on my house. I have the standard Caterham dash light system and standard gauges. I haven't got the confidence that the gauges are not all that accurate. They vibrate and crack and fall out of the dash. That sounds like I'm dissatisfied but I'm not, what can I expect with a 13 year old car. I've been told by a reliable source that is very common with Caterham. I would like to find a used Mychron or equivalent system or any model at a reasonable price. Can anyone help with this?

I knew the smart ones would help me. All I had to do is ask. Thanks guys.

My car is a 2010 and it has the badge showing 50 years? Why the difference in years?

I've driven a few cars on different tracks such as Spec Miata, Formula Continental, and some lumbering Mustangs. The touch on all three of those cars are pretty predictable after a couple of laps. When I got into my Caterham it was a whole new learning curve. I almost took out a few guard rails on the way home on 215. At first I thought it was a bump steer, but then I realized it is as you say the small wheel and the rack. Without giving you too big of a head It was a pleasure to see those smooth hands.

Very nice video and really smooth hands!
