September 8th, Fuji Speedway Circuit
I joined the Japan Lotus Day on September 8th at Fuji Speedway, which also happened to be the event at which the press launch of the Evija took place. So not only did I get to spend a day with similarly fanatical Lotus owners, walk unrestricted through the pits (full of classic cars) and have a race around the track, I also had a chance to get close up to Lotus’s new hyper car!
The track experience was excellent, albeit a little tame – as I don’t have a track license and so had stay behind the pace car. But even then I could test the incredible cornering ability of the Elise.
And to top it all off, we get a chance to be the first people in Japan to see the Evija.
