why the s2k is faster?? well first off it was a typical tsukuba battle...on tsukuba there is a long straight away.. (437 meters)..at that point that was where the s2k had pulled away from the lotus...but on the turns and hairpins the lotus had better entry and exit speeds...

Does anyone have a link to the video?
Hmmm, my money would have been on the Elise in that one. Which Elise was it?

I have it but I need a site to host it. If not, I'll put it on the eDonkey network and post an ed2k link.

I bet it is not the 111S/ USDM version of the Elise.

Here's the ed2k link on the video. It's in VCD format and in Japanese with no subtitles:

I just tried with eDonkey, but for some reason the download doesn't start ... Is your computer on?

I'll host these files (http://ocs.thq.com/jsuzuki/best%20motoring%20-%20jan%2004%20(vcd)/) for a few weeks.
It took a long time because of the holiday weekend and my home bandwidth is quite a bit smaller.
Thanks J! That M3 made the other cars look and sound like playthings.

The M3 sounds very good, I've always liked the CSL, sounds kind of like a hachiroku with ITB.
The Elise did pretty well against the S2k consider it only had 158hp.
Yes, thanks Jsuzuki for the video.
