    My gawd! Four wide at Bathurst?! Sure the Elise is a small car, but dayum. Oh, and not much contact I could see.

    from the looks of it, Dean Evans can DRIVE. either that or the rest of the field wasn't terribly skilled

    Elises are small, so ingress and egress must be especially difficult with balls the size of watermelons.

    damn looked like he had another gear once he cleared the pack - nobody is that noticably better unless the other guys/cars suck.

    Was that a one lap race and he had to get to the front right now? The more I watch it the more I wonder if the other drivers weren't trying to get out of his way before he hit them. I guess if it was some sort of pro-am deal that might explain some of the difference between him and everybody else. I'd like to see video from other cars or better yet some video from trackside for some of those passes.

    Others say that when he sees a pretty lady... there is so little skin left over that he can't even blink his eyes.
