Are you kidding !?!
Eric , I can read that you made 1146 post on LotuseElan.net , and you wait until today to ask !?!
Baby is for the 2 seater whatever the series , dhc or fhc . Here the others are +2 … but “baby” Elan help when “modern” Elan’s are in the area …
Christian. 
scca do this but it only requires a small spring loaded tap fitted in the fuel line to allow a fuel sample to be drained out not a dry break ’ they are looking for’ speed mist ’ oxygenated mixtures that are carcinogens and create a cancerous condition to competitors and marshals and spectators — ed
I am about to take delivery of an S3 which has the Cobra high back seats which i guess must be 4 or 5 years old. They are in great condition and will be coming out of the car in a week or two. (They are surprisingly comfortable!!) If anyone is interested in them before I put them on Ebay please let me know.

Jon,
Where are you located? Shipping costs are a factor.

Hopefully, a suitable seat can be found asap. I had a nasty crash this weekend in the “Velodromloppet” in Sweden, sliding off on oil and hitting a Cortina sideways in the kitty litter…The TT seat I was sitting in splitted, but I got off with a broken rib and a nice blue/yellow tan down my left side…A proper seat that also allows for a side intruder bar to be fitted is really a must when racing Elans! ( some pics on www.historisk-racing.no )

hi Dag
Sorry to hear about your crash but glad not to much damage to you. I hope the car is not to bad either.
cheers
Rohan
Hi Rohan , and thanks ! Click on the link above, choose “Galleri” on top, then “Velodromloppet” on the lhs, then " 2009 Velodromloppet - ?rnulf Hjort-Sorensen" . My sad car is on page 3…
I’ll dismantle and check, but the frame and lhs of the body needs some adjustments… 
Dag
Bonjour Dag,
Had a look to the gallery of the 09’ Velodromloppet , this morning …
I think Rohan -as me- try to be nice .
We know how fragile are these Elan racers .
Btw is the red 'tina not the one of your team mate’s !?!
Best regards,
Christian.
Bonjour Christian, and thanks for your sympathy ! The “funny” part of the story is that I built the engine in the “tina” last year…Now it blew up in a big way, having a rod looking out the side of the block, causing all this oil to be left on the track. Rolf “Myggan” Nilsson , -the Swedish Elan driver -, and myself was abt. to lap him, and both slid off and into the Cortina…It turned out that the Cortina driver suffered some loss of oilpressure during the last three laps, but didn’t pay notice…He is not in my team though…I have a part in the red “tina” nbr. 22 , that did quite well… 
Yes I agree, the Elans are fragile, but very (!) rewarding to drive and the best of fun !! 
BTW , the red Elan going sideways on the first pic, was spectacular indeed…(!!) He lost it holding full down the straight, turning 180 deg., and coming to a halt without a scratch. Our engines are abt. the same, and with my 4,44 rear, 5.25M13 tyres and 7800 revs. , I did abt. 195 km/h…He was a bit quiet for while, before finding his old self…

May be when you rebuilt it, you make it right hand drive. Keep you further away from the accident 
Seriously, the import part is that you walked away. The car is easy to fix, human bodies take a lot more work.
You are so right Steve ! BTW. it is RHD. That fact saved me from serious injury…!
Rgds Dag
Dag,
Good to see that you were able to walk away from the incident -
The car is pretty surdy so i hope you don’t have too much work ahead of you.
If it would help I have a orphaned adjustable left rear A-arm , if you need ( is it allowed ? ). I would be happy to donate it to the rebuild at no cost to you beyond shipping … Let me know
George
Hello all,
I have been speaking to Sebring, who visited me on Saturday morning regarding getting a seat which would be FIA Homologated, HANS compatible, comfortable, safe and fit in the “baby Elan”.
I believe we have now got a very good option of seat available, we have an FIA Homologated seat which with a little tweaking to the shell at our end will suit all your needs, it not only fits but we offer a full fitting service to make sure it fits YOU… (Either by you visiting us at our premises or buy measurement charts)
I don’t want to break any Forum rules etc. but if this would be of interest to a number of Forum users, I would be quite happy to set up a group buy on the seats for forum users and would make a donation to the site if successful.
The Seats are our own make “motordrive” and we have been designing and manufacturing race and rally seats for over 25 years, and rather than the ?1600 I saw banded around beforehand for a seat. Our fitted seats have 4 options of material starting at ?275+VAT and going up to ?650+VAT for the full carbon and if we did look at a group buy of say 8 to start with that could be reduced depending on what materials we look at, and with us making the product here in the UK we can put your own embroidery designs onto the seat etc…
Anyway have a think and if any of the above is of interest please let me know…
Paul
(Does anybody know who the chief Admin is so I can discuss this with Him/Her to make sure that they are happy with my suggestions, Thanks)
Paul
There is a separate Business Listing part of this forum that allows company’s with an interest in Elans to post and discuss their goods. I would suggest that you use that freely.
If you do still wish to speak with the site boss, mail Jeff Cocking at [email protected] but he is a busy fellow and runs this site in his own time.
Tim
Thanks Tim,
I will do just thought it might be of interest to people on this link as it is not a general seat that we usually make and I know of the difficultly people are having obtaining FIA seats that fit.
I’ll email Jeff too…
Thanks
George, many many thanks for your generous offer ! There are beyond doubt good people out there !! However, I suggest you save it for another occasion, as I have a pair on the shelf allready…! Many, many thanks anyway !!
Dag
Cobra now make a seat which easily fits into an Elan. It is called a Race Pro.
regards
Andy
tried it - it fits car but not me - please refer to previous discussions
Hello Andy, sorry can’t find it. Can you provide me with a link ? 
Thanks and rgds Dag
