The Elise driver must have been shit.
An Elise driven properly would show up a Corsa, especially with a V6 upfront.

The 111R Elise doesnt max out at 120. They can do 150mph and have 190bhp.

There is no chance that an elise would be beaten through the twisties by a corsa with a V6 lump lol Maybe and i stress maybe beat it for all out speed providing you can get the power down well.
And they aint too bad at drifitng either

Yeah but a sstandard elise doesnt , no where has he mentioned its a 111R!!! all he knows is he raced an Elise.
Thats like you saying you raced a BMW 3 series and beat it , then some one saying well the M3 does over 150mph!!!

only good thing about the elise is they all tend to do 0-60 around the 5.5sec mark.and there only like between 115-140bhp depending on model.i had a play against one in the cupra and off the rounabouts he was pulling away well then i was just going straight past him.

You made a general statement that Elise's max out at 120. Which is incorrect.
