amazing how fast the elise closed the gaps in the corners. I'd bet the elise has a better lap time. It just kept getting held up by the big fat porsche in the corners and didn't have the grunt in the straits.
that gt3 had some impressive straightline speed... after you passed him he came outta nowhere to pass you back on the straightaway. Very nice ride though... i wish i could see a pic of your ride from the outside =D
He looks like he's got about 0.5-1.0 seconds on you by the end of the main straight, and it's all gone by turn 3. rofl. amazing car man, nice driving :D
I bet the GT3 driver thought he was getting away every time he hit the straight. K20 in an Elise is an awesome idea. Put some individual throttle bodies on that thing and you'll never have to screw with it again.
Yeah however the K-series is a Rover engine designe for the MG. Most advanced version found in the MG TF160 (like mine:) and the Lotus Elise 159. Yes it is a hell of an engine!
That was fucking awesome!!! best bit was catching the Nsx and passing it on the right creaming the Gt3, I have an Elise (without the Honda K20) but it shows how much quicker they are in the bends than other sportcars. Well driven aswell which makes a change on youtube..
@ohnoes300c He do try to overtake overtake a lot of times, but the porsche is just faster on the straights and yes you can see how the porsche driver always goes wider through the corners, but it's just not enough. You can't take some random line into every corner to overtake, because then you will loose a hell of a lot of time and then you will never be able to overtake.
Lotus was pushing the Porsche in the coners and then Lotus past him at the first opportunity , but then on the straight Porsche flew past Lotus like hi was stand still and that means Lotus had no chance , still Lotus guy put loads of pressure on Porsche and hold the fight pretty well!!!! Respect to Lotus driver and thanks to Porsche guy too for entertaining !!!
Great drive, got to love the elise Honda. What I will say though is if that was a track day those guys should have more respect for others. Don't know the rules over there but overtaking on both sides bullying people out of the way.... not nice
Gt3 driver is more experienced and playing around. Elise driver should crush the gt3 in the cornered part of the circuit but lacked. Great fun though driving like this, but gearbox will be crushed with high revving downshifts like this...
A V-Tec engine ...... in an Elise ..... i seriously have to rethink my whole life to handle such an awesome combination.
Best 9 minutes of K20 ever omg!!, Porsche owners eat your heart out, a K20 catches up too ya
What an epic battle! You sir, are awesome! I've watched several of your videos and can't get enough. Thank you for posting these.
Mick
Questa macchina è stupenda, il suono e le prestazioni sono di uccidere! congratulazioni!

Great battle, on the edge of my seat screamin for the porsch to die for 9.20mins!!! Great driving!!

@rogierjansen. It seems he is taking very odd lines through certain corners. The GT3 is late apexing like he should.
very nice driving skill. Would love to drive such a nicely built car!
He looks like he's got about 0.5-1.0 seconds on you by the end of the main straight, and it's all gone by turn 3. rofl. amazing car man, nice driving :D
Exciting video and good driving. The K20 sounds very sweet.
Very good driving, It's very top to see it. Thanks for this moment!

At 6:25 I cheered. At 6:57 I booed.
Brilliant driving, sir.

Yes it is a hell of an engine!
4 cylinder 2 liters 240 hp in it's most potent form. Redlines at about 8000 RPM. In the current Civic Type-R and DC5 Integra Type-R
im speechless, two words, SIMPLY INCREDIBLE...
lotus + honda = win
Good clean fun, good driving both. Track days in Italy look a real blast. Health & Safety wouldn't stand for this in UK.
That's some awsome driving from both cars!
That was fucking awesome!!! best bit was catching the Nsx and passing it on the right creaming the Gt3, I have an Elise (without the Honda K20) but it shows how much quicker they are in the bends than other sportcars.
Well driven aswell which makes a change on youtube..
Further proof that it's not about the car, but about the driver!
The Exige driver clearly outdrove the GT3 driver, good job!
nice run,clean driving on both parts.
great video!Nice driving!

Great driving guys! Very impressive!
Awesome video,Awesome driving, If you had your six gear ratio lowered, there is no way the GT3 would pass you on the straights then!!
Complimenti Celima!
nice split at the NSX, a-la michael and mika at spa 2000? Well, not quite but we can dream can't we? :)
c'est surprenant et fantastique a la fois !!!!!!!
that looks like so much fun with some pretty expensive toys.
Looks to me like the Porsche is hitting better apexes before the straights (?)
i wanted you to pass that Porsche so bad
@Audiosurfsup
I agree 100%. The H22 is the manly man of Honda four bangers.
Is you k20 standard 200 hp euro or Japanese domestic market 220? Thanks. Mark a
good driver and very nice car aswell...
what is the 0 to 60 time, and top speed with the k20 engine? thanks
@scanline580 sure. trying to beat them off the lights in ur family car is not the same.
Grande guida e ottimo motore x la tua elise!!!!!
grande celima, fantastico 'sto video!!!!!!
nel sorpasso al GT3 ho esultato!!! :D
gran bel video!
in quanto giri cn la lotus senza "tappo" davanti? :)
superb driving! and k20 ftw
@ohnoes300c
2 liter 4 cylinder engine IS NOT EQUAL to 6 cylinder TURBOCHARGED engine
you pretty much out-cornered that GT3!
was it a lotus with a k20 swap?
The guy in the GT3 was following the proper race line, I wouldnt sell a near 400hp boxer short...
damn gt3 sounds like the hand of god .. nice vid k20 ftmfw
In allungo la porche gt3 ti lascia dietro XD però cazzo nel tracciato gli fai le scarpe!!!Bella lì..
nice run ma dood keep it up
nice battle! your lotus is awesome!
Voglio diventare bravo così anche io quando sarò grande! =')
Great drive, got to love the elise Honda.
What I will say though is if that was a track day those guys should have more respect for others. Don't know the rules over there but overtaking on both sides bullying people out of the way.... not nice
Awesome video!. Thanks for posting.
The Driving Car....with the Camera is the Lotus
this is why I love K20. If you add a supercharger on it, I think that Porsche will eat dust.
@inakay99 well it does in this video
very very good job
Nice video, you cant pass it, but it cant rid of you hehe Honda rules.
sounds like a beast
@TFSmash or a rotrex SC :)
honda motors are underrated..
Way to go! Great way to stick it to a Much more powerful Porsche, Hahhaha!!! Great Job carrying HIGH CORNER SPEEDS to keep the Porsche at Bay!!!
i was like thats it? then i say the GT3..... thin it was like HOLY sh*t!!! and the driver in the GT3 has some skillz~!!! and so dont you mate
Totally. The Elise dude is one hell of a driver. The Porsche has poor track manners.
you sir, can drive.
k20 FOREVER
The Porsche driver was playing ruf...
simply magic
Porsche driver seemed sloppy, but not much you could do on the straights
VTEC K20 POWAA + GM glued-chassis = KICK ASS 4 cylinders
EXCELLENT
E bravo celima..
sweetness!
don't bother turning up to any trackdays in the UK ... neither of you would last 5 mins.
Musica per le orecchie!!!!
if it wasnt for lack of horsepower that elise woulda left him years ago... its quicker on the turns also..
fucken gt3s owns but much respect to the lotus wit the k series :]
exige handles better at the corners as always
That Gt3 couldnt do anything in cornering...
Neither would the Elise if it were up against a 500lb GoKart.
uber driver,good job man k20 ftw
dam elise against 2 gt3s.. grazy!
light is right :p
Awesome driving skills lotus with slightly more power u would have taken the gt3 ...that straight killed u .
Runnin down GT3s!!
turbo charge that k20a then it will be a fair match.. that elise woulda smoked him.. hes keepin up on the cornerings
Holy shitballs!
k20 rulz!
driver > car
at min. 8:07 I thought It was a van lol
window cracks at 4:06
uber driver on k20! A+
stupid lotus and their corporate ties with Toyota, WORTHLESS!
HONDA RULES!!!nice car, awesome driving,
simply fantastico
Wow, i can't stand watching you get blocked by the Porsche, aggrivates even me.
but porsche car bloke the lotus .this is not fair race
i would love to see this car with a supercharger on it.
Gt3 driver is more experienced and playing around. Elise driver should crush the gt3 in the cornered part of the circuit but lacked. Great fun though driving like this, but gearbox will be crushed with high revving downshifts like this...
what?
Yellow GT3 probably thinks he is good, let's see him keep up,with you in front in the corners,, not gona happen.
id like to know wat the fuck a lotus elise exige is..... its one or the other lol
