not sure about this one. i did witness my friend smack his up at the autox. he must have been going 60-70mph. I was doing about 45-50mph in the same corner where he lost it and the elise has much more grip than my car.

The car sustained some damage but nothing unrepairable.

This car... I'm not so sure it can be repaired.

uh, too fast. I would take that off his hands for a buck, if only for the brakes, you know they haven't been used much. Limits are really high in those mid engine cars, but when you get there, BANG, it is all over
