Loose bearings could very well be your problem. It means that the hub is going to wobble, which can create a leak, not to mention a broken axle. I'm assuming that your Lotus has the same single-bear

It all depends on your rear end gearing, your rpm, the size of your tires. There are calculators on the web that will give you a theoretical top speed. Here is one is use: http://www.teamhealeytexas.

I run the Kent 276 in my race Midget. I originally built it as a Spec-Sprite and that is the spec cam. It has worked very well in that car. The power curve I think is well suited to a fast road cam.
