Does it explain why the exige has a wing and a front spoiler and the elise does not? This always bothered me. Exige also outperformend elise on every track comparison I've read (81.75 vs 82.80 @ Evo mag august 04). Exige has better aerodynamics, it is a fact everyone knows. I say putting the wing and spoiler on the elise will only make it better, no matter what lotus says.

Stock S2 Sport 190 lapped faster than an S2 Exige in a head to head test. It's not that much of an advantage having a wing. Chassis setup has more to do with the Exige going faster than having a tad more downforce.
