We recently (19 September) received an email from Lotus:
Dear local resident,
I hope that you are keeping well and that you have had a good summer.
Attached is the last quarter of the year track calendar – and you will see that Lotus Driving Academy finishes next month. Other activities on the track after that, and to the end of the year, will be Lotus business activities – testing and development, customer and media visits.
This coming weekend we have two events, on Saturday 21 September, we have our annual “Lotus On Track” track day which is for only Lotus cars. The cars have to be road legal including sound and tyre squealing is not allowed.
The following day we are holding our annual “GreenPower EV” event. GreenPower is an educational trust that encourages students of school and university age into STEAM subjects and careers and involves designing and developing and driving small electric vehicles, with a competitive element on a pre-determined closed course, in our case at Hethel. Therefore the site will be slightly busier than usual for a Sunday and we are expecting a couple of hundred of people to support the event.
Then the following weekend, on Saturday 28 September, the Facebook Group “Lotus Remembered” which is made up of former and current members of Lotus staff and their families are having their annual reunion – it was first held two years ago at Classic Team Lotus and then last year at Group Lotus. We are expecting a few hundred people will attend and again, the site will be busier that usual for a Saturday, but there will be no track activity.
Finally, this week we unveiled a new concept car Lotus Theory 1 in our Lotus London store, on 73, Piccadilly. You can read more about it here. Should you be in London between now and the end of September 2024, do pop-in and have look.
As always, all other the news can be found on our media website here:
