LEO at the NY Auto Show

Recommended Posts

Anybody who is planning a visit to the NY Auto Show should be aware that the Lotus Enthusiast's Organization (NYC/NJ Area) (a.k.a. LEO) will have a Lotus Club display on the 11th Ave Concours all day Saturday, March 29.

 

 

We will be located just south of the entrance overpass in front of the Javits Center. Come by and see a sampling of Lotus cars (all of them club-members') across the history of the Marque, and shake hands with some of the members of this Forum.

 

See you there!

 

PS, there is NO TRUTH to the rumor that Al Navarro will be there as the "star" of the LEO Dunking Booth. That would just be too "Carny"! We DO have a sense of Decorum.

Great to see you again Box! Thanks for making the trip in. Many folks here were discussed fondly and/or with awe/amusement.

 

I had a good time at the NYC show, and the car was well received (honestly, it's always a bit of a star in mixed model company...especially with the kids, a number of whom I let sit in Orange — easier to do than with the other cars on dispay).

 

Driving in the city was a mixed bag. We were stuck in crosstown traffic coming out of the Javits for about 30 minutes and I was worried the car would overheat.

 

Jon and I discussed a less-trafficky early Sunday AM drive of the streets sometime in the summer. If I still have the car, I'm in.

 

The car is now installed at my friends' store in NoLita...

It'll be there all of April, coming out early May in time for Carlisle meet up.
