The Lotus gathering this year was smaller than usual, but still interesting. My car wasn't there as it's getting its rear main seal replaced.

Stunning (newer) Elite. Talk about a showroom shine!

Nice Europa Twin cam too.

Yes, finally after 16 years of going to these meets we get a nice spot. It seems that this event either has sweltering heat or rain coming down in buckets. This one was hot, so the shade was very welcome.

That Elite was in excellent condition. The owner belongs to the Evergreen Lotus Club in Seattle. He took off before I could ask for a ride in it.

Great pics . This Europa looks wild:

The snorkel is temporary and used just for racing. The owner, our club president, has another engine cover without the fiberglass snorkel, which he made himself. It looks great in real life. You can see other photos of the car on the track at our club website: www.clnw.org -- look in the gallery section and then look at the track day photos. The reason for the snorkel was to get cooler air into the engine bay. Dave, the owner, says he'll eventually replace it with the ducts used on the type 47.

Some very nice cars there. Loved the late Elite and the S4 Elan.

Don't knock the Rovers. They were very advanced for the time being designed to take gas turbine engines and winning safety awards (just like the Elite did).
