Martin.

The Elise has allways been rated as one of the best handling cars and a track prepped one is going to be better still I assume. A fairer comparison with a bike would be with something like one of the road 250,s 400's, bikes which, like the Lotus go for light weight and excelent handling over power and speed. One of these will also easily out corner a 'blade, and if sorted for the track, by quite a margin. A well prepared 250/400 road bike can turn in very impressive lap times around a tight track like Brands Indy in much the same way the Lotus beats faster, more powerful cars.
