I took the article about the Europa flipping to the Lotus club executive
meeting last night. The general consenses was that about the only way to
flip a Europa is by tripping it. It would have to hit something.
We could not figure out what would cause the wheel to tuck under enough to
be the cause.
The violence of the loss, rolling clear over to land on driver door, would
indicate that the car had lots of momentium. ie. It was really moving! On
an autocross course?
The turbo makes me wonder what other things were changed?
