GT3 had to drive perfect lines to stay on the black stuff. Lotus driver took outrageously early apexes half the time and the car never drifted wide.

Goddam, those Elises must be easy to drive fast :wink:

Superb - Lotus was mighty close to chewin lumps out of the Porsche on several occasions. Love the Darth Vader-esque soundtrack of the charger too . Keith

Was just about to post the same comment... reckon if he had taken a wider line it would have been ultimately quicker. Better driver than me still.

Quality stuff indeed 8)

The exige must've been hellishly frustrated by the 911's reluctance to let him pass - similar happened to me last year with a 996 turbo - he was holding me up on the twisties, but I couldn't get past him on the straights :roll:

I am sure he was just sticking it up the inside to show the GT3 that he could ...
