I believe that year of Elise was powered by the integra Type R engine, so that is a fair match i guess. Nice video though....

I noticed the Honda driver pushing too hard to try to keep up. He got sloppy and there were some hairy momonts. Dam I wish I had a circuit around here to run on!!!!

I was surprised to even see the civic being able to keep up with the elise, if that was the Integra Type-R powered Elise then I remember car and driver having that car run a 12.6 quarter mile. Sweet vid.

If you watch the video the elise driver isn't exactly skilled...seems to me he's off-line in many of the corners, and he still easily beats the civic for most of the race...IMO the civic driver is a lot more skilled...you can tell the elise driver is more inexperienced. With an experienced driver, the civic would never be able to touch the elise all day...i'm sure some of you have seen that video of an elise vs. a c5r corvette...the elise stays with the vette the whoooole time....
