Yes. Had to be opposed because it has little space inside the car. If the handbrake were normal, the pilot would beat with his arm on co-driverQuote:

I agree with you Mirek. The Exige R-GT it's a new car and also, the spanish Lotus doesn't have 3.500cc turbo engine like the R-GT.
The Exige Cup 260 is with an 1.800cc compressor engine from Toyota Corolla TTE Compressor with 225bhp
A lot of people have believed that for a while now, given Dany Bahar's high-risk marketing strategy of sponsoring a Formula 1, GP2 and GP3 team as well as several Indycar outfits.
At first the exige Rally thing sure sounded promising... but now i am certain its nothing more than a publicity stunt before Lotus kicks the bucket... maybe 1-2 runs with tourists behind the wheel showcasing useless sideways action in rallying, and a lot of salon-parading around EU.
That's a nice theory. There's just one problem with it - it doesn't get Lotus anything.
The current rumours of Lotus' financial system do not say that the company will go into receivership. They claim that Proton will put Lotus up for sale before Lotus starts to drag Proton down with it. Whoever buys Lotus can turn the company around, but it will take a lot of effort.
Well, IMHO the film clip with Vallejo's Lotus shows already that this small Exige Cup is no threat in therms of speed to his ex-championship 911 GT3 Cup. Porsche is a beast compare to Exige.
But the GT3 Cup is way far from what it could be under R-GT regulations, so it says nothing about R-GTs.
