I'm inviting all lotus owners to participate in this show in March.

Last year, we had over 100 cars, and it was the first time the show took place. We had all makes and models of cars; exotics, sports, muscle, off road, etc...

There is no fee, but a small donation is appreciated.

I will have more details in the future, but i am hoping to set up a little cruise-in type event that morning. I have been talking to the guys driving the italian cars, hoping to get a large exotic representation. This way, we can meet up in the morning, and take a little 30 min drive over towards atlanta. I think it will be a blast.

Stay tuned.

The date of the show was changed to April 2 for two reasons...

1) GM could bring some of their concept cars out on this date...


2) Shell Oil is bringing out a 2001 Ferrari F1 car. They are going to set up some jacks and air wrenches, and let teams of people change out wheels as fast as they can. They'll provide digital photos later on their website. The fastest times will win trophies.

Our keynote speaker is going to be either the guy who designed the chassis for the Ford GT, or the guy who did similar work to the Enzo over in Italy. Both are Georgia Tech grads.

Does that get your attention?

If you don't come out, you dont know what you'll be missing.

Sounds like the show will be a real winner!

Does your invitation include those cars powered by Lotus engines (i.e. Jensen-Healey) as well or are you just looking for exotics?

Concerning the jenson-healey, sure! Bring it out. We're going to have a large crew of italian, british, german, and american iron meeting up at a starbucks that morning, and cruising over. Its going to be fantastic!
