Proposed Lotus 23 replica is a Noble C23 a Englishen is very well known for its sports car manufacturer of small series. The Lotus 23 made his debut in 1962 at the 1000 km race at the Nürburgring. In heavy rain, the Scot Jim Clark went right from the start in the lead. The competition from Porsche, Aston Martin and Ferrari had brought sports car at the Nordschleife, which partially had four times the performance of the small lotus. Nevertheless, Clark ended the first round with a lead of 27 seconds on the Porsche of Dan Gurney. At the 24-hour race at Le Mans, it came to a head, as the officials of the ACO factory 23 the race participation refused after scrutineering. The lattice tube frame is fitted with an uprated 1800ccm Alfa Romeo Boxer Agregat, which keeps the center of gravity of the car as low as possible, a height and hardness adjustable chassis ensures optimal road holding even at the edges. The CSFs body overall condition is not perfect, I personally see this with one or the other jump in GRP dress who instantly recognizable is not worth not interfere. But rather on the contrary, lends it the car a pleasant patina.
