I have a secret weapon … developed by Lotus …
Is this it, per chance?

“ANTI-NOISE”
Part of the Lotus Active program. A computer controlled
sound generation system that audits and measures
cockpit background noise and produces an identical out
of phase signal to cancel the noise, thus quieting the
cockpit. Lotus has developed and patented this threshold
technology. Lotus is also the industry leader in using
passive anti-noise designs to reduce noise in vehicle
chassis.

Anti-phase sound waves have been used for years to reduce sound levels !!
Wonder what they patented ?

Pardon ?

I saw that demonstrated on Tomorrow’s World 20 odd years ago in…a Lotus Espirit. So it could be them.
They aim was to pick-up the noise from mics in the head rest and play the anti-noise through the car’s stereo.

This is gonna be a first … no trailer
Sorry chaps, child care problems and the risk of a sick alternator mean I’m not going to be able to make it.
I’ve tired to find a solution but it’s not going to happen and I’d rather bow out whilst there’s a chance somebody can make plans to use the room. Anybody want it for this weekend before I ring and cancel the single room on Russ’ booking.
Have a great time one and all.

You have to go through Snowdonia!
Ian
He he
Hey Ian, what about these disks - want me to send 'em ?
What do they weigh?
Ian
Ian
See the PM just sent …
Andy
Never mind Ian, next time. Pity, as it looks like the car is not going to be ready, and as my better half is taking the S2, I may have to come in the Lambo…
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Russ,
I’ll take the spare room if its still available.
Andy,
What time are you heading out to Wales. Do you fancy meeting up?
Steve.
Hey Steve !
I have two choices … either go in the morning or leave later - I have a tele conference between 2 and 4.30 and I dont think that would be good from inside the Exige
What were you thinking - cos it would be good to drive together
Andy
Cheers Steve, you’ve saved me cancelling the room (and feeling bad for the nice hotel people).
Go early chaps, and do the Llangollen detour through Horseshoe Pass, a very splendid piece of road (an EVO favourite).
Ian
Steve, Ian - Leave the room as it is and its sorted then, no?
Steve - which car are you bringing?
