Sports cars I have personally interacted with today:

<b>1994 Lotus Super 7</b>, basically a 185-horsepower go-kart ~~Holy Shit~~ what a ride!:

I get home and my neighbor is taking delivery on a Shelby Cobra kit, and there's a Pantera in the truck also:

Great images, as always NBN. No nearly naked women or assault weapons, but still great.

Is the Super 7 the current production model of the car from The Prisoner? (KAR120C)

xoxoxoBruce · 10-03-2004, 10:09 AM

That Caterham has 185hp? Usually they are 105, 115, 140 or 160hp except for the 230hp Superlight. It's easy to see why they're still selling after 40 years, in they're much cooler looking than the new sports cars. Did he buy a kit or finished car?
One of the test pilots at work has a Cobra kit he built. What a beast!

Also, your photography is superb, as usual.

jinx · 10-03-2004, 10:18 AM

Hey cool. My dad had a Pantera when I was kid.

xoxoxoBruce · 10-03-2004, 10:52 AM

Did he work for Philadelphia Electric, Jinx?

Nothing But Net · 10-03-2004, 12:22 PM

Damn, Bruce, you are well informed. It is a Caterham, who took over production of these beauties several years ago from Lotus. My friend made mention of the Superlight, which makes me think this may be the 160hp version.

The only experience I can compare to a ride in this beast is Malibu Grand Prix, except much faster and with an actual element of danger thrown in. Take 90-degree turns on city streets at speeds exceeding 50 MPH to understand what I mean.

xoxoxoBruce · 10-03-2004, 12:34 PM

More important than the horsepower, the damn things only weigh about 1200 lbs and the superlight is about 1000 lbs.

At that weight, a fart would make them fly. Add a low ctr of gravity and super handling, it's like being on rails. I've never had a chance to drive one but all reports are glowing.
Your excellent pictures show the quality in detail.

I'd just like to take a moment to say that, based on the photographic evidence, NBN seems to live a much more fascinating life than do I.

SteveDallas · 10-03-2004, 07:10 PM

I'd have to say the same thing in relation to myself, Elspode, not that that's hard!

Also, I have to say, know NBN, when I saw the topic, I was truly fearful of what photographs would be popping up when I clicked the link.

Nope, he owned the Sunoco station on W Chester Pike near Denny's and raced dirt track modifieds.

Jeez, NBN, what a buzz–kill!
I've been pretty happy up till now with my new Hyundai...

Good pix, but the title misguided me.

Undertoad · 10-05-2004, 07:55 AM

It's an idiom, Billy. And a difficult one!

If a man drives a fast car, we say maybe he is "compensating"; he is small in one place, so he buys a big car to balance. We say it with a laugh, as if it is a little joke.

Nothing but Net wrote it to joke about himself, so he made the idiom more difficult.
