If you believe on the finished work of Christ you are saved ! Acts 16:29-31 29 The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. 30 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved-you and your household.” Time to speak the truth. up to the rapture you won't find repent from sin in the Bible. Repent FOR remission of sins is in Acts chapter 2:38 Acts 2:38 38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Read the verse carefully, it says Repent and be baptized FOR the forgiveness of sins. Do you get baptized every time you sin???.Peter was speaking to the Jewish people who sacrificed animals for their sin now they had to turn away from that belief and believe Jesus paid for all sin. 1 John 3: 9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. How are we born again ? 1 John 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. If you don’t believe on the finished work of Christ because you add works then you are not born again 1 Corinthians 6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. Galatians 3:21Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.
Which is FASTER you will see in a DRAGRACE. On the track you will see driver (PILOT) skills, performance of TYRES, of brakes, of suspension, which are lighter, which have shorten gears/diff even a limited slip... THEN the ENGINE. NEVER track race will show which is FASTEST in real conditions!!
I love how a car with about half the power of an F1 car of the era was outrageous, but even then, the chance of realistically owning one was minuscule. Now any soccermom or salesman with zero driving skill can buy a 3t tractor with a lot more bhp on the never never, amd regularly do, yet nobody bats an eyelid. How times have changed.
Fair play the amazing, very rare, and ultra special Lotus Carlton maybe a little bit slower than the newer car, but remember the Carlton is old technology but it’s still up there in the top ten fantastic car list. Lotus Carlton for me all the way
for an old car thats astonishing. It kept it's modern counterpart fairly honest. Now , question is, how many miles did the Carlton engine have on the clock as over time and mileage the engine loses horsepower. I dare bet the vxr had significantly less engine mileage than the Charlton.
So that would be the "family race car" that was never actually raced? I'd welcome correction, but I didn't think the Lotus Carlton was used for racing. Besides, "family' race cars go back way further than 1990 - the Lotus Cortina, the Mini Cooper (maybe that was "the family rally car"?), and by the late 60s the Bathurst-spec cars were pretty swift in Australia, some with 4 doors, and all available to the general public.
The vxr8 is miles ahead technology wise and a totally diffrent car what does anyone expect however the lotus carlton really held its own against the vxr8 and considering its years old it looks well looked after and really kept up with the vxr8 very well done to the lotus carlton 💚❤👍
A real Holden Commodore in Vauxhall Clothing made in Australia and marketed in the UK verses The Lotus Carlton , oh yeah that goddamn frankinstiening of an Opel Senator done without Opel's blessing , For us it a naughty to even think of having one of those Carlton in the yard in Australia. Carlton is of course a beer in Australia that also made Fosters for the International market because they can not hack VB (Victoria Bitter) . All we got was a Holden Commodore VP with the ugliest front grill you could muster as to say one ding and they we're toast and the Buick V6 as Holden still could even get their fricken act together at the time. That is the main reason Peter Hanenberger was the main man that got you the lovely Vauxhall VXR8 . Even in 2023 I still would like to see a Carlton here in Australia.
I was fortunate to be involved in this project whilst at Lotus cars Was involved spoilers and trim colour Empire Green Went for a few trips round test track and suppliers a quick and classy car.
That's not why it doesn't have traction control. Also TC doesn't really add any weight. They didn't add it as it would have been super expensive at that time late 1980s early 1990s. Hardly any cars had traction control back then. Also Tc back then was not very good. Lotus in 2006 added TC to the Elise etc. And variable traction control a few years later. Lotus put so much effort into their TC recommend using the traction control on their latest cars as it yields faster lap times. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uOYdiKEEZIo.html&ab_channel=AtypicalDriver
I really like the Holden as an Aussie who has grown up with them. Still the Carlton looks like fun too. It all depends where you live and what you like. I have driven 4 6 and 8 cylinder cars over the years. Enjoy the cars now. The future of the motorcar may not be as promising. When they suck all the fun out of motoring I will just pray for death........
