The Lotus Grand Tourers

I plan to be there all going well.

So 'Eli' winks in the knowledge I've been using further desperate measures to try and improve the aesthetic of her disintegrating 44 year old vinyl roof......

Hi folks, unfortunately I won’t be able to make Castle Combe as I’m in hospital. I have some mystery infection that has knocked me for six that they can’t find the cause for - apart from that there is nothing wrong with me (beyond the obvious). I’ll be in hospital for the next two or three days while they carry out more tests. Anyway, I hope it is a great day!

Cheers, Richard

Sorry to hear that Richard.
Get well soon.
Next year then, back in the Elite. It will be the closest big lotus event to the 50th anniversary.

Absolutely Tony, next year will be a big one. One small piece of good news - looks like I’ve swerved a lumbar puncture!

Cheers, Richard

Had one of those whilst sitting, the docs couldn't believe it. Very good for clearing a headache.

Yes - get well soon Richard - whatever is wrong! I might even make it next year (if I pull my finger out and get something done)!! Not been to Castle Combe yet.

Pete

Get well soon Richard and keep eating the grapes. Ive never been to Castle Combe either. Pete can guide me there next year !!

Ps, wont be doing the track though Im too tall to get in the car with a helmet on

Thanks chaps. I don’t think I’m as hardy as Stu! You guys you must make sure to come along next year it is a fun day. And the free lunchtime track sessions are quite fast and don’t require helmets!

Cheers, Richard

Hi Richard
Sorry to hear you’re not well. Hope they get to the bottom of the problem and you feel better soon.

Got a bug too! Could be Covid! Find out later

Hope not Stu! Checked the weather for Castle Combe tomorrow and it looks perfect -sunny with light winds. Take your sun hats!

Cheers, Richard

Hope you are better soon Richard.
I will be there tomorrow but in the M100 as the weather looks too good not to have the hood down. I'm going to have the usual battle on the M5 with all the holiday traffic as it's half term next week.

I should be able to make it to this, I was hoping to be able to take the Excel, but the engine is still in bits
