Thanks for the link, so it was cancelled because of lack of any support from the Lotus traders.

This could be an ongoing problem for future Lotus Shows, I do hope its not.

Interestingly, I?ve not yet received any e-mail notification from Club Lotus re the cancellation.

yes lack of support.......or is it location thats causing the lack of support?
speaking to people at malvern I got a distinctly mixed response.....some liked it some didnt

personally I preffered Donington simply for its location (and there was a track for the ones who'd rather have a thrash round)....I know alot of the guys from 'up north' didnt come because of the distance......I also know that quite a few guys from europe didnt come as they usually flew into east midlands and stopped at the local hotels......

anyway I suppose thats for Alan at CL to decide......

oh and Donington is now back open again.......Ive just watched the BTCC racing from Donington on ITV4

Malvern and Donington are about the same distance for us , from France .
This year , it has been good fun to be at Malvern with "OEW" , but we are still a few to prefer Donington ... And I am the first .
Too many reasons for that : The track -and generally cars lapping- making the number bigger , the F1 museum allways a newbee to go with , the airport , for some of us their favorite B&B , the proximity with some parts dealers , etc ...
I know we are not going to make the decision , specially because the Elan owner are becomming rare , but if each vote stand for one...
