Well, according to lotus uk, the car weight 1663lbs. With a 200bhp Honda motor, that's a pretty good power to weight. Throw in 3.96 gears, and double wishbone track set up, and it would give the R a run for its money on a circut.

This idea is nothing new, look at the classic Porsches, 550, 356, etc. Light 'underpowered' cars running rampant on the international scene. I'm rooting for the Cobra as much as anyone here, I've just seen too many high end European GT's to doubt their performance.

Wow, 1663lbs!!! Ok, now I understand....I thought they were well into the 2,000 range. I sure as hell wouldnt want to drive in a 1663lb car everyday though. That thing must sound like a tin can skateboard(probably just as safe as one too)
