Lotus Elise is a great little track car and tons O fun. But even supercharged this one could not get away from the Viper. I was on the track with a stock Elsie this year with my 99GTS and the Elise could not hang with me. I've only been on a track a couple of times so I'm no expert.Having said that I love the elise, great car.

lotus are beasts in the track

kool

No I am still trying to figure out my overheating problem. :(

early- Are you going to PCA event this weekend? I'll be there. I know Dave S will be there as well...

36bd9fbd where you watching another video? What experiance do you bring to the conversation?

Even a viper would be toast.

Viper will not stand a chance against the elise, without spining off the track.

some great driving guys and some nice cars to boot! much props!

Ya, those brakes will send a guy through the windshield all day long. Amazing how they just don't fade. Other than ST-43 pads, they're stock. Stock springs and shocks. I added some grooves to the shock bodies to lower the car a cm or two, but otherwise stock suspension. Unopened engine, but Supercharged (230-240RWHP). I recently dumped the stock ECU and added a standalone-- still tuning a bit. The wing and splitter are functional. I'm running *massive* 235 rear and 225 front RA-1 tires (Stock is 225/195)--yip, massive:). I've got other things that don't make the car do any better on the track like built in Dash2, DL-1, Clamhinge, exhaust, etc... There's a gentleman named Ron Fleer out of St. Louis who drives an Elise. He is many seconds faster than I am around HPT, many. He will take lines in these cars that simply blows my mind. I may be reasonably quick, but I certainly don't do the car justice compared to a driver that actually knows how to drive...
