Can someone tell me how to keep a lotus elise pointed forward. For the british lightweight race I can't keep it on track at all. Is there another uk car I can use to win this race without spending 80k.
Thanks'.........sped1966
Tuned to comparable hp and tried running with no assists. Even tried with traction control at 5 or 6 and abs cranked up a little. Didn't wanna throw down 25k on racing tires either for a car I didn't really want to buy anyway.
What about the type 72 '01 elise or Elan s1 '62. Any big difference really. Or all pretty much the same. Horsepower to weight ratio just hard to keep stuck I think.

If you look in the UCD, you might find a Caterham in there, like I did. I don't think it costs 80,000 credits, and it is one of the best handling cars in the game, especially with tuning. I just used a Mclaren F1 GTR Stealth Car. And won. Horribly.

Found a little Vauxhall Tigra. Should work great. FF always handles much better than mr out fr. Working on this little race to keep from throwing my wheel outside because of gt academy tzukuba. I've hit the 1.07 wall. Just gotta step away...........lol.
I have to ask same as the other guy... What settings are you using? The best lightweight in my opinion is the Elise 111 RM. I CRUSH drivers using 500-600 HP cars left and right with that thing. It will max out HP just over 300hp and hadles like a dream once you dial it in a bit. Heck I did at 6min 27sec lap on the ring today without even pushing it. And that was after me and another guy in the same room driving the same car came in 1st/2nd over and over and over through Laguna, Route 5, Cote De Azure, Rome and Cape Ring again against cars double to triple the HP.

The Top Gear Test Elise drove like like that because it was on comfort hard tires. The 111RM is a total different animal all together. While I have not driven the TVR yet I have to say I LOVE my Elise. Throw some racing tires on it and its a force to be delt with on any track. Honestly it probably the fastest car around almost any track I own under 500hp and I do not have a small collection. And given the price even after Race Mod.... Awsome Value!
Last time I checked McLaren were a UK based outfit located in Woking, Surrey ... and weighing in at just over 1100kg you could hardly call the McLaren F1 'heavy'
Unfortunately the Elise is one of the least accurately portrayed cars in this game. I've raced a Lotus Elise 111R around Laguna Seca in real life. I know for a fact that I can take turn number 3 in thrid gear flat out without any control issues. In GT5 if I do that, the rear end comes loose WAY too easily. Easiest way to correct is instead of just hammering that gas pedal, ease onto the gas out of the turn and ease onto the brakes into the turns. Takes a little getting used to and a little practice, but it works. This also means you have to run a perfect race though if you want any chance of coming in first.
but with some engine modification 
along with stock suspension!
