  1. Hmmm... Guess I would be worried about how well the plastic holds up to gasoline. I just drained my gas tank tonight and plan to install my foam sometime this week. The primary reason I'm adding foam is to reduce/eliminate the chances of a huge fireball should my car be rear-ended. Secondary motivation is to reduce the sloshing as my Storker flies around the twisties. Do you know if the the wiffle balls have the same effect?
  2. Excellent driving Shane! My Storker likes to get sideways at those temps.
  3. I cannot wait to check your new toy out. Congrats Skip!
  4. I love the compact look. Very tasteful interpretation.
  5. Congrats - Let the fun begin!
  6. It would probably be far quieter than my external fuel pump.
  7. I'm running the same pre-pump fuel filter (SUM-230118R) as xcarguy. No problems.
  8. Not sure what brand of mufflers, but they look like cherry bombs with 4" inlet and outlets. I think the clear plastic GoPro case muffles the noise to a large degree. I was hitting anywhere between 125 to 129 on the long straight. My speeds were getting faster as I started getting onto the throttle sooner after the first turn.
  9. Went out to High Plains Raceway last weekend for my first track day with my Storker. The car's capabilities far exceeded my talent. Even so, my wife and I had a blast. She now wants to get out there and drive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_2tYVH4W8E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4Gbny2wggw In case you're wondering, in the first video, I forgot to secure the passenger side hood latch - my bad.
  10. I agree with Skip. I've been a member of LOCO for several years and feel like I am part of the family. My Birkin and Baby 7 even won a "Favorite Lotus" ribbon at the local Concours d'Elegance a couple of years back. Those who voted to award my cars the ribbon were LOCO members.
  11. Jeez - glad YOU and the car are okay. What the heck was she doing so close?
  12. Thanks for posting your time slip. Similar to mine. Traction is definitely the toughest part.
  13. I'm pretty sure that's a Nippon Denso alternator. I have the same one on my Storker. Same as found on a '92 Geo Priszm.
  14. Mrs MightyMike will get the Evora - I'm stuck in the sun with everyone else. I had raccoon eyes for several days after my last drive.
  15. Yep, the Storker is going. Baby 7 will be there too. Will probably throw an Evora into the mix (winter purchase).
  16. Perhaps, but I will not lose any sleep worrying about what some people think.
  17. Just in... http://www.lotusownersgathering.com I will be there.
