Ex Lotus F1 star Martin Donnelly will once again be competing in the Elise Trophy this year, and will be racing at Brands Hatch over Easter.
After successfull outings in a class A Elise at Donington Park and Spa Francorchamps in 2007, this year he will be racing a class B Lotus 2-Eleven, so there should be some fireworks towards the front of the grid

Some times it doesn`t pay to be a Northerner
Just to far for me to go + i`ll be doing the trackday at the Big Donny show the week after Hopefully one year i`ll get down to Brands
At least the next race will be at Donny and i should be there with a few others.
Good luck to all the Drivers for next weekend and i`m sure it`ll be a good show

Anyone interested in riding down with some other Lotus's I'll be leaving Norwich at around 7.00 to meet others at Stanstead at 8-8.30 then down to North London to pick up even more cars, then on to Brands.
Just post up here and we'll arrange to meet up.
Anthony, there are quite a few "nonvoys" to Brands arranged on SELOC that might be near you:Just post up here and we'll arrange to meet up.
