Synopsis
The Front Engined Lotus Sports Racing 1951-1959 - Between 1951 and 1959 Lotus produced eight front engined sports racing cars each of which contained innovative engineering design developments. From humble beginnings using converted Austin Seven based specials, Colin Chapman developed his own chassis and produced his own sports car. Over the following eight years with a new Lotus model each year, with each model distinctively different from its predecessor, Lotus rose from the ranks of a special builder to a race winning constructor of sports racing cars which included countless race victories at circuits throughout the world, plus success at world renowned international races at Le Mans and Sebring. Lotus produces the mark III in 1951, followed by Mark VI, VIII, IX, X, 11, 15 & 17. At this point Lotus moved the engine to the rear with the 18 followed later by the 19, 23, 30 & 40. The main text comprises road tests, racing, driver's impressions, new model intros & track tests. With 344 pages, 750 illus. SB.
