Greetings to you all,

My name is Richard Smith and I own a '64 Lotus Elan 1600. Just wondering, are there any Lotus meetups in my area (New York City, Long Island)? I'd also welcome recommendations for Weber carburetor tuners in my area.

Welcome Richard
Good to have another RichardS on board!
Obviously can’t comment on Weber tuners in your area, but I have found using a colortune for idle mix, and a synchrometer for balance useful and pretty straightforward. Have used a local tuner with a rolling road in the past for the full works.

Thanks. I would love to meet some of our members in person but difficult as we're scattered around the world.
