Introduction - Lotus Europa Twin Cam Owner's Manual

INTRODUCTION

The advanced design and performance of the road equipped Lotus Europa Twin-Cam
precludes the necessity for extensive modifications for track purposes. The modifications made
were mainly as a result of necessary compromises incorporated in the road car to conform to
regulations and to achieve an acceptable level of creature comfort. Other modifications were
necessary to increase the safety of the car and driver while racing.
We do not claim the modifications and changes mentioned in this booklet to be a
complete listing, or to be the ultimate in development; but merely those which we have proved to
be effective in campaigning the car in SCCA production sports racing. While we would not
knowingly recommend changes, which would not be legal under the SCCA production sports
rules, it is the responsibility of each driver to ensure that his vehicle conforms to the applicable
competition regulations.
We would like to wish you every success in your competition endeavors with the Lotus
Europa Twin-Cam, and if technical assistance is ever required please do not-hesitate-to contact
the writer.
