    Interested to chat about how competitive it was in the field. It doesn't look like an Exige will be allowed. For a road car, the Elise looks better prepped than the other heavier cars. Any thoughts?

    Thanks!

    The car loses ground on the straight aways.
    Corner speed and momentum is what gives it the edge. The car can be pretty fast with a good driver behind the wheel.

    But here's an example of how it loses ground on the long straights:

    (not really an Elise, but the car in the vid has more HP and TQ - still...)
