Hi

Dont have a Sports Racer, but one of my pals who lives in Aberdeen does.

After having a go in my elise he found the handling addictive and decided to buy one too - good lad!!

Pretty much the same as the 111R i believe.

Safe to assume your enjoying it?

Totally loving it !

I suppose any stripey elise counts, apart from that tiger coloured one :P

My wife says that she sees a red sports racer on the A720 bypass quite often.

Sports Racers only came in blue with 2 white stripes or red with a white stripe down the middle.... they also had the white wing mirrors.... iirc they were pretty much a 111R with performance pack and bespoke interior & paint job.... and I wanted one!!!!!!

Shame they didn't go a bit more motorsport on the sports racer, lightweight, SC engine. Could have been genial.

It's got the sports pack (twin oil coolers, T/C, exige dampers etc). Sports Racer has Sports Pack and Touring pack, but we'll have none of that carpet and leccy window nonsence in Fife thanks very much. :D
