If Lotus do some decent development work over the winter, and can built some pace into the basic Evora package, and whoever's backing this has put together the budget to resource it properly, hire decent drivers etc, then it
might be OK.
If not, and it's another case of Dawson trying to run the car on a shoestring, with race-by-race rentadriver deals, or trying to run it on alternative fuels then yes, were looking at Dawson Radical v2, and you'll hardly ever see it....
