Group Lotus terminates its agreement with GTI Racing Ltd.------
GTI ran the Type 115, an Elise-based GT-1 race car, in the FIA--
GT Championship.------------------------------------------------------------------
Plagued by a sanctioning body ruling which made the Lotus--
V8 turbo engine uncompetitive, the GTI team switches to a 6.0-
liter normally aspirated V8 as the 1997 season began, but------
never recovers its form.---------------------------------------------------------
