Nice to see a Lotus7 series  They take a bit of fiddling with ffb, driver view and steering angles but once sorted they are a great drive and should offer some excellent racing. |

Underpowered, and not like the Caterhams, but I think as Tudor says, with some setup they will be a good compliment to the calendar
These Lotus 7 events will be alternating with the Enduro series, so will be bi-monthly to start with at least

Link changed to the no grip original
Looks like I messed up the upload.
Can't do any more with it for a couple of days now until I get back to my other machine at Southport.

Whilst checking out these cars offline I noticed something unusual about the cars available when different menu's are selected.
If you select Power & Glory from the class category menu you only get a choice of two cars. But if you select Lotus 7 Club from the class category menu you get eleven cars to choose from but not including the two from the other menu.
Just so you know.

Just the two cars available on-line.
Are they all the same spec?

They appear to have the same spec. I'll pop onto the server and see if I can coax out the full set of cars, no promises mind. EDIT: I've put the Lotus 7 club set online but I am unable to join online myself to check. I keep getting "host may be running an updated game etc etc". Can someone else have a looksee and report back. BTW it doesn't look possible to have every Lotus 7 together at the same time. |

Apparently the file name for the full Lotus class is too long. Although all the cars appear offline only the 2 cars can be used online atm.....this will be fixed in a future patch.

Thanks GT. I'll get back on to the server and undo my changes.  |

Been on line OK, has the damage been adjusted or is the Lotus 7 just more robust? |

Don't think anything's been adjusted, but you are right Bill they are very hard wearing  |

They pick up suspension damage, same as all the rest, but it doesn't have much effect.
