Possible but not really likely,this project has been ongoing for quite a while. I found out from Guy months ago but was sworn to secrecy!!!

I think it shows how far Nitron have come and the quality of the product they supply.
I can only assume the developemnt with Lotus has had a positive effect on the whoole Lotus product range from Nitron.

Hense the reason for the try before you buy post earlier in the week!!!

Chrisexigegt, wherever he is! Not sure on spring rates!

Maybe the Cup cars will get Ohlins lol. Tbh its good news, UK company and all.

I guess they won’t have the right springs ect though just like the ohlins that came on the Exige’s, instead of the soft standard ohlins they should of fitted the gt4 2-11 ones. It would be good if they fit a proper set that you would happily spend your money on or at least make it an option.

Quite possible, but at least it still leaves the door open for a decent upgrade :smiley:

Quite right. After all, what does Lotus know about ride & handling :crazy:

:wink:

I’m sure cost had nothing to do with it :wink:

Was Lotus’ link to Ohlins ever anything to do with the move to Toyota engines - ie Yamaha built engines for Toyota, and at the time Yamaha held a controlling share of Ohlins?

Just ordered me some Nitrons from seriously, look forward to bolting em up.

Thought long n hard about quantums, ohlin’s were out of price range, but decided Nitrons with their new choices on setup would stand me proud considering I’m no racer.
