SUPER LAP BATTLE 2025 Ep. 1 - Building a Lotus Time Attack Car

We're building a TIME ATTACK LOTUS to win Super Lap Battle 2025 at COTA! Our friends Black Flag Sarcoma Racing have brought us on to build Lotus with the goal of winning limited class next March at Circuit of the Americas.
In this series, we'll take you through every step of the build process, from initial teardown to the final shakedown laps. Kevin Fennell and our FASTx team will showcase the modifications, performance tuning, aerodynamics, and all the time attack preparation that will make this Lotus a fierce competitor on the track.
Join us as we navigate the challenges and triumphs of building a top-tier time attack car. Whether you're a motorsport enthusiast or just love seeing high-performance cars in action, let us know what you think!
Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more behind-the-scenes looks at our race builds and to stay updated on our progress leading up to Super Lap Battle 2025.

Is it within the rules to make it a single seater, like the Autobytel Lotus Exige Series in the UK back then? Great content.

[@Tankker99]

It is and my personal car is more centered, but the intent for this car is for charity awareness so we want to be able to carry passengers

[@turbo_brian]

[@fastx_autosport]

The steering column and wiper is from an 05 Elise, that's it! The wheel bearings are from an '11+
