Craig Czank ' s Efficiency Sports and Marketing Lotus Exige S is sure to make an impression at Aldo Sribante. Fans of the legendary British lightweight road and race car brand know the Lotus Exige is one of the best mid-engined production car platforms ever built.
With its advanced chemically bonded chassis and excellent weight distribution, the Exige is celebrated for its undiluted, direct steering and agile chassis response. It is the kind of chassis that can be unbelievably quick through the technical parts of the Aldo Scribante circuit, like the Hairpin and the Esses.
What makes Craig Czank ' s Efficiency Sports and Marketing Lotus Exige S so potent is its turbocharged VW R32 engine, producing 447 kW. The Exige S ' s packaging doesn ' t easily allow for large-displacement engines, and the R32 ' s narrow-angle V-design makes it compact enough to fit.
