Colin Chapman boxed the rails and has 14-gauge cross tubes torsional rigidity. An elegant aluminum two-seater body, which weighed only 65 kg. (29.5 kg) was added to reduce drag, and the engine was very coordinated. The car, for all his apparent delicacy, proved to be a surprisingly faster than the competition.

This looks rather like a very poor translation of a foreign language original.
The Lotus Mk III was built to compete in the 750 Motor Club (NOT motorcycle club) 750 Fornula for sports cars (which had to have at least two seats, so it was NOT a single seater).
This quote "It led to a request for copies (better B Mark III was built for Adam Currie, for example) and a copy of the previous Mark I." is misleading. The Adam Currie car was a MK III fitted with a Ford 1172 cc engine for the 1172 Formula. It had nothing to do with the Mark I.
The 1st Mark III was built by the three partners Colin Chapman and Michael and Nigel Allen. The building of cars by a group of helpers came later with the Mk VIII in 1954.
