it probably is slower than a stock elise. there is only so much power you can put to the ground with rubber tires.

It probably gets traction. Its got some really wide wheels and tires in the rear to put the power down.

no matter how wide the tire is you can break the coefficient of friction. tires have their limit. that's why supras with eleventy billion horsepower run high 12's

Yeah but that is with huge horsepower. I would think he could put 550 down.

What if he had a 250 lb driver and 250 lb passenger? I think its doable.

I've ridden in one before. Yes, they could but you'd be shoulder to shoulder.
