It was a draw with the Bently really... he has about 200 more HP than the Esprit, though he weighs twice as much... on a strait freeway like we were on he can wind it out... I'd top out at about 175 to 180mph, he could hit almost 200. Now the instant we'd have to change directions, then I'd blast by like there was no tomorrow. Bently = GT cruiser on the highways, Lotus = sports car that doesn't need to slow down (much if at all) to change direction. Two very different cars.
