Both my C4S (sold) and my TT have a slot that will take the tab. My jack pad was for a C6 and is aluminum like the Elite Engineering ones but it is a litle thinner. I'll try and take a picture and post this weekend. I'll try and jack it up to show how it looks attached.

I would love to see your car. I am so tempted to swap my car for one of those overpriced orange gt3rs's

i dont know if it hurts the car. when it's over 105 deg, i start using 100 octane fuel to prevent timing retard and detonation. not sure it matters but peace of mind.

i will be in my lotus today.
gray in color with #6 on the flank.

oh at those temp, i can feel very clearly that the car is slower and not as responsive... or maybe that's me being baked and not being responsive. it is still fun nevertheless.

there will be at least one RS there i am sure. several 6 and 7 gt3.

it would be nice to meet you in person as well.

As a former Corvette owner and track enthusiast, the elite pucks are a great device to help with jacking up the car.
One tip, though - I've seen a few guys lower the jack, drive off and forget the pucks are still on the car! a few hard turns and they become a seriously dangerous piece of debris on the track!
