An epic battle - Honda Powered Elise vs GT3 Exige

An epic battle between two closely matched cars with different strengths. The camera car is Tim Mackie's Series 1 Motorsport Elise with a supercharged Honda K20A drivetrain. The white GT3 (it is the car that Ninco made slot car versions of) of Angelo Lazaris is now sporting a Turbocharged 2zz and Hewland gearbox.

Roof camera.
In-cabin camera.

The two drivers get on well so the on-track incident was quickly forgiven.

Same cars from an earlier race:

The white Porsche at the start is a GT2 car.
Tim's car set a new lap record while Angelo was only 0.03 seconds behind.

Awesome racing thanks for posting this! Imagine the s1 with equal hp! Seriously biased toward s1's

Great to see these Loti at the front. Sad that Peter's car is not in the mix! Angelo's car is the best looking lotus in existence bad a$$ car!
