You would've thought they would've run out of Lotus badges by now...
However I think its great to hear about a GT3 programme. It was good to see the Exige in GT3 a while back and the Evora's done well in GT4 so upwards would be the logical progression.

At least they won't be able to just slap a Lotus sticker on somebody else's car in GT3...
There's a single Evora GTE confirmed on the ELMS entry list, so sounds like they're persevering with that as well, which is good news

As much as a number of aspects of this team are frustrating, I have to agree that the car looks great. Loving the Lolas!

Does look pretty good, but we don't really need 3 of the things (with the Rebellion cars) and the driver lineup is rather uninspiring.

The Lotus GTE entry in ELMS will apprently be run by Gianni Giudici. Johnny Mowlem is the first driver named, two more to follow according to Planetlemans, and car expected to be black and gold (there's a surprise...)

Firstly, that's not the new Lotus-Lola-Judd-BMW-Lotus, secondly, I hope that's spare Lola-Aston DBR-1/2 bodywork on a mockup frame because that looks absolutely horrible to butcher such a beautiful car into.
