Im stuck at work folks and cant get to a direct link – but following the tragic death at the Mt Buller event last year CAMS have changed the rules.

Currently, the 2-11 does not meet Australian ADR\’s. I know a gentleman who owns one, and it wont be seeing road use. Lotus would need to change several areas of the car to pass ADR’s.

according to wikipedia you can get a “road” pack that makes it load legal in some countries. im guessing it comes with a windscreen, blinkers & tail lights

Tom: Can you provide a link for that rule change?

It seems silly due to the large numbers of Westfields around.

With CAMS recent rule changes outlawing open roof cars, the market for these in Aus is pretty much dead.

And no, they are not road legal.

This car is street legal in other countries, is it possible to rego one of these or do we have tougher design rules?
