are exige! not elise

[jdh919]

The championship was called the Autobytel Lotus Sport Elise Series.

What is the relationship of this car to the 300RR??? These look like the 300RR (which is the same car Hennessy "massages" to fit a twin-turbo LS7.

To clarify, they are Motorsport Elises.

Do you have any more footage from the Autobytel series @jdh919? Would love to see more as i own one of the cars.

Are not Exige ! are Elise motorsport ( exige bodies )

@joshcroucher And I think that they've made the exige for an actual road version of the motorsports elise.

[joshcroucher]

@Ahya728 your very true the exige was only created when the s2 came out you. the s1 (which this is) came with optional body extra's which gave it a greater track car experience

[DThaeman]

i wish that guy would shut up

[Ahya728]

@MATTnROSEs excuse me, but I found your comment hilarious! Actually there were no Exige yet during that time :D

@whitestang99 - shows you don't know anything about cars, really. Which is why OEMs are happy to pay Lotus large amounts of money for engineering and consulting work.
