The trip obviously wasn't perfect for me as my vx didn't make it but it's a testament to the people that form our collective that I enjoyed it so much

 

On the plus side not having the vx did mean you could really unleash yourself at the bar on the thursday night ?

p.s. you looked rough at the track in the morning

Did they climb on board when you were driving?

 

...is the punchline I was searching for!

That's only because I didn't need to look remotely sober but that's pretty much how I always feel before a TD especially in Zandvoort.

Funny Lauren saying Nigel looks best in a hat, because he didn't wear one, I photoshopped that one, as he turned up late (It almost became funny how many times we lost Nigel this weekend).

 

Thanks to Scutter for such a delightful choice in head gear.

My pleasure, as the photos prove, it's a hard look to pull off.

Thanks, Lauren.

And they say a camera never lies. Why does photoshop make me look like an OAP? 

 

What a good weekend. Thanks everybody!

Perhaps Peter should have let us all try a pose with the boot lid for the 'funny hat' picture !

Everyone's busy telling facebook they are in Zandvoort and having an awesome time 😂

[Peter VXR29]

I was just over the moon you guys managed to fix it for me.....was starting to think zandvoort had it in for me, thx to the many that helped in this highly technical operation....the forum team came good again. Big thumbs up!

[CocoPops]

I'll post other cars later this week, when I have the time.
 

Any more yet? Blue Evora?

I wanted to see Coco battle it out with you guys but saw about 10 seconds as he was cooling down to leave the cct

[MAXR]

Joe, your car looks pretty sorted now & appears to handle really well, from what I saw in George's video footage, it rotates nicely & seems planted. Are you happy with your setup now?

 

George, nicely driven...again.

 

Watching all the videos, it always seems that most VX's on track are driven hard, harder than most. Why is that? Does the average Lotus owner, not spend similar money & fettle their cars as much as VX owners do?

 

Peter, What's the Exige like on track? I had a long chat with two owners recently, one who couldn't praise it enough & the other who found it took away too much with all the driving tech aids. What's your thoughts?

Max, i love the car, it goes seriously well (if i do say so myself) for a 240hp NA. i have a few more mods to do mainly to help keep it quiet, as i was lifting majorly on the last corner and start of pit straight as i didnt want to get kicked off for the day.

 

but yeah im loving the car and i think there is alot more potential i just need to improve more as a driver

 

The back on track geo is awesome

 

i thought i was holding chill and george up a fair bit but judging by that video i think it was doing alright!!

 

 

as for the vxs, i think its because we know each over and are competitive in our nature therefore we push harder than anyone else. what ive found is lotus drivers mainly have there head up there arses and wont move over.. but then maybe we are too pushy?!
