Lovely looking car in that blue and yellow, congratulations and hope you have a load of fun.

There is an Exige specific section on here and a good search facility so I'm sure in no time at all you'll find one of the several threads on the exhaust noise issue.  Solution range from a "decibel reducer" from Komotech to a new back box/exhaust from 2Bular that is very track friendly and does not reduce the power.

I came into this world screaming and covered in someone elses blood. I'll probably leave it in the same way.

Welcome to TLF and congratulations, car looks epic! 

As Andy said, you're not the first to want to track their Exige so there are a few topics already that you can see some of the options in :thumbup:

Would highly recommend you join MLOC we have some great Sunday morning runs in the Peak District and Rutland not that far for you. A great bunch of fellow lotus enthusiast. It’s free to join and would be great to have you aboard and see you out on some runs this Year👍

That sounds gret, thank you.... i will look into joining.  
 

i am a long term Porsche customer and one of the lovely things about the brand was the clubs and meets etc...

 

i was considering another premium brand before buying the exige, Lamborghini...but they didn’t really have any clubs or enthusiasts meets,....hence i went for a brand with following and hopefully no pretentious ar*eholes...

They used to (in the 1990s)

Club Lotus Surry used to hire Goodwood for the day, and joined up with Lamborghini UK a couple of times

Welcome to TLF.

To combat the noise @vikz, I was going to say 'Drive slowly' and then I washed my mouth out with soap. some of the guys on here have the same issues. There will be a solution floating around somewhere.

Any questions or issues with using the forums, feel free to ask one of us mods. We're here to help. :)

Opinions are like armpits. Everyone has them, some just stink more than others.

For forum issues, please contact one of the Moderators. (I'm not one of the elves anymore, but I'll leave the link here)
