Unhappy Update on the Lotus

Just thought I would post up to the guys/gals on the '06 Rally.... The Lotus met with an unfortunate accident somewhere in Iowa last weekend. ON the plus side, there is at least one less deer in that region... possibly 2 less..

I am still waiting for my insurance company to call me and let me know what the adjuster thinks. But the front clamshell is toast, along with the headlights and windshield. Hopefully the frame is not messed up and we can get her fixed in a couple of months...

LOL... thanks for the support guys.

Yea we are OK. Funny thing you mention a CF bodykit... I have one on order already. Complete GT3 replacement... Problem is if the frame is bent the car is totaled. So, I can only hope the frame is not bent. We shall see.

The car is in some town called Adair, Iowa.... I highly doubt I will see it again untill it gets shipped to a repair facility.

I think Geico's adjustor will take some pics and put it online. I can post those later when they put them up.
