Manfeild Trackday in my Lotus 7 Replica 1 May 2011

After a bit of a break away from racing I signed up for a non-competitive track day to enjoy my car in the proper environment.
It was so much fun I'm still smiling.

The car was built in about 1976 in Christchurch. I've had it since 1998 and have rebuilt it any times since then.

it has slowly gone from being a road car to a capable and still road legal race car powered by a 1600cc Toyota 4AGE 20v.

I sacrificed a far bit of top speed by leaving the windscreen and doors on and dialling back the limiter to 6500. No point blowing it up when it's not a race day!
