KoBra-Race ABS / ESP for Elise with ZR-Powertrain
Ko-Bra Race ABS / ESP
Motorsport and safety feature at the same time: Our newly developed Ko-Bra Race ABS and ESP!
The 1st available motorsport ABS / ESP on the market especially developed for the Elise with ZR-Powertrain and extensively tested. Our many years of experience in motorsport, the knowledge of the Elise Range itself and the feedback from our customers have made it possible for us to work and point out the essential points for development and optimization.
The result is a plug'n'play solution that is just as suitable for everyday sporting use as it is for ambitious use on the track! The existing Lotus-DPM functions of the driving modes (Tour, Race and OFF) could be integrated and expanded. So if you make the effort to use the system right, you will definitely be faster and safer!
- ABS: In the future, the limiting factor for you will (almost) be the choice of tires only! Typical racing deceleration forces of over 2g are possible now! Even when braking deep into the curve, the typical understeering of the standard brake is eliminated and enables precise steering through an optimal ratio between the maximum possible braking and lateral force control. The so-called ice mode (“hard brake pedal”) is prevented.
- ESP: An ESP works through selective brake intervention and regulation of the engine torque. The lower torque in particular causes a considerable interruption in power. Thanks to our adapted regulation, you control the torque by the accelerator pedal only. The control allows higher drift angles and also power slides. Twists are still effectively prevented and corrected more gently. It is still possible to switch off the ESP completely - but it is no longer necessary for a hot lap time as overcompensating brake interventions no longer take place. It should also be mentioned that we were able to improve the already known overregulation of the ESP (especially in the Cup models), which already likes to regulate on motorway exits and can be used in Sport-Mode only. After the optimization, the ESP regulates much finer and is definitely beneficial to the driving dynamics even in Tour-Mode.
- TC: The traction control is also no longer activated in our software in order to achieve better traction and full access to the engine torque.
- Data recording: All variables relevant to driving dynamics are made available via CAN bus and can be recorded via CAN logger (not included in the offer).
- Our System be used for: Elise 1.6, Elise S (ab MY11), Elise Sport/Sprint 140, Elise Sport/Sprint 220, Elise Cup 220 und 250, Elise 240/250 Final Edition
LOTUS CUP APPROVED: From Season 2021 onwards our ABS is also tested and approved for Lotus CUP Series (Exige V6)!
