Quote from: "juansolo"The Elise is grippier and out brakes a Mr2 quite easily

I've got the official figures somewhere but the 60-0 distance for the Elise is only 3 meters better than the 2.

I'm quite suprised at that.  I suppose it's got a lot to do with the fact that the brakes are unassisted on the Elise and I find them easier to modulate because of this.
[size=75]Porsche Cayman - Curvy (almost) perfection
Juno SSE-CN - Bonkers track thing
Mercedes 190E - Das Uberbarge still going strong[/size]

Actually 3 meters shorter distance than our 2 is a huge difference.


Then again, I still think the 60-0mph pretty much only tests the stock tyres, not the brakes. Even the grocery getters have no trouble engaging the ABS for one 60-0mph braking...
Sure you can live without 500hp, but it\'s languishing.
