That’s my coworker’s. He’s retiring in the spring and about to move the car out of state so he wanted to swap drives to check out each other’s cars.

The 914 is LS swapped so 300 hp at 2200 lbs is exciting to say the least. Even with lead ballast in the nose it was a bit floaty with all that weight in the back. In the straights it was a beast but once we hit the corners and swapped cars the downforce from the wing I have on my Elise really shined. I never got to see his reaction since I was in the Porsche when he was in the Lotus with my wife but I’m pretty sure he had a blast. The weather and lighting were also perfect for snapping some pics.
