In Which I Become a Car Nut

Today for a few hours the three sweetest words in the English language were “End Speed Zone.”

I drove the Elise on the open road for the first time today. After an hour I was hot, sweaty, acutely aware that the car had not been designed for someone with Rubenesque hips, and had to pee. I didn’t want to stop; I was having too much fun.

Spring has Sprung

It was a beautiful day and being a holiday I went for a drive towards the coast.  I didn’t make it as the road I picked still had some snow but it was a wonderful drive none the less.

The UniBrain Motorsports division was founded in order to keep alive fragile Little British Sports Cars. The division currently owns a a 1966 Lotus Elan Coupe, a 2005 Lotus Elise and a 2002 Mazda Miata. We’ve included the Miata since it was inspired by the Lotus Elan and because it is yellow. Other cars we’ve cared for include a 1997 Caterham Seven. Fair weather sporting activities of the division include open track days at Portland International Raceway, TSD rallies and the occasional Autocross.Off season the officers can be found buying new tools and safety equipment.
