elise has a very very healthy power to weight ratio.

you could still see it gettin raped on the striaghtaways though. ya i know it's power to weight ratio is great and you could see that through the twisties, but it lacks the top end grunt needed on a long race track.

The Elise weighs just under 2000lbs and has an amazing suspension setup. While it's not as fast as the other 2 cars in a straight line, the Elise is made for the twisties.

he was not very nice to the blue porsche
passing him on the inside like that. forcing someone to the outside like that can be disasterous
I still don't think a Elise could beat a F40 though. there was a big difference in driver skill there, I think.

The Elise cannot beat the GT3 or F40 given a race car driver driving all 3 cars. The only reason the guy in the Elise was passing them was because he was a better driver, bottom line.
