A gentleman in town owns an early Esprit Turbo. Out for a drive with my 15 y/o the other day, we spotted him coming the opposite direction.

His first comment?

"He needs to bring that out to autocross".

I love my boy.

But did he know that it was indeed a Lotus and not a Delorean?

He knew it was a Lotus, but not which kind. That's good enough for me.

Trick question. A Delorean is just a bastard Lotus.

I had a similar moment when my little girl told me she was "excited" to go to a car show. She's 3.

Yer dad bringing the Stainless Steel Steed?

Hoping to do so. If all goes well I'll have my S12 200SX all ready.
