Hello everybody:

Our friend Roger Mulloy (an active member of the Lotus Car Club of British Columbia) sent this link to a lot of really great information about Lotus cars and the people that surround them... the article about Lotus at Goodwood (2012) is especially interesting and has a bunch of pictures that you might have not seen before. What a fabulous event, I really wish I could have attended.

Doug Jackson   

PS: We're still looking for a new Newsletter Editor for our car club... please get in touch with me if you have any interest in filling this important role with the ELCC or any questions about it.

Picture  of the Month - October 2012  
This month's winner is Elise  owner and amazing automotive photographer Malcolm Feth.  Malcolm has a standing offer on the forums to take  ace pictures of Lotus cars and Esprit GT3 owner  'whirlybird'  (yes, he is a helicopter pilot!) took him up on  this. With two orange cars in one place (the Elise  is Malcolm's own car) the temptation was too great  to capture them both together and Malcolm's latest  techniques and equipment capture motion in the  most awesome way, we're sure you'll agree.
