I'm looking forward to meeting new people who own Esprits and seeing some beautiful Cars. Plus what ever else I can learn and see there....

Bibs Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 That event is Formula Palmer Audi - Lots of rich kids in single seaters. They don't care about cost so crash often, it's good to watch! There is the first round of the LoT Elise Trophy that weekend too so it's worth watching some Elise/Exige/2Eleven fun and Martin Donnelly will be in his blue 2Eleven, he's incredible to watch. For the Lotus event, make sure you bring a shopping list and some cash and comfy shoes!

davegtst Posted March 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Are there stands there selling parts then? i still haven't a clue what type of event it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Are there stands there selling parts then? i still haven't a clue what type of event it is. Last year: http://www.lotusespritworld.co.uk/EPictures/donington08.html TBH, i go to donington now for the meet up, stay over, evening meals and hanging out at the hotel with my mates on the forum. If the show itself consisted of an empty hall with two guys discussing originality issues about suspension bushes, then i'd still go! And a MUST see, is the Grand Prix Collection which is on the same site and yet missed by just about everyone. 130 formula one cars, bikes and other stuff: http://www.donington-park.co.uk/grand-prix-collection-museum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esprit350 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 dont forget to turn up for the group photo in the car park about noon on the sunday IIRC Quote The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.

esprit350 Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 esprit not required, although someone has to lay on the floor in front of the group, usually Bibs Quote The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.

Kimbers Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Indeed. Midday in the Lotus car park is always a must for the group photo. As is the full english served in the restaurant to help get rid of that morning after feeling! Purza and people not been before. The Museum is an absolute must! If you don't know who people are just look for the ones who look a little green and that will be us! Quote Possibly save your life.
