I'd guess the Elise should be able to beat Krista's 996, but probably not Jeff's GT3, but in the end a lot comes down to the driver.

I didn't get to see much of the Elise in action but it was hawt. It is very compact to everything else.

Elise would eat every car there.

The GT3 is nice, but if I remember my experience it's like driving a slot car -- but with a 6ft wide slot.

Edit: Yes, I agree also that it depends heavily on the driver -- but ceteris paribus you bastard
