If you don't drive a Lotus hard than why bother to buy a Lotus. I remember driving my Lotus on LSD (Lake Shore Drive) and this dude in a BMW came up to me and was edging me to race him. We were approaching the two 90 degrees turn on the drive so I decided to go for it. He kept up with me but when we reach that first 90 dgree turn I still haven't brake and it was all over for him. He put that BMW on the concrete divider. Drove away laughing to myself, you can't out brake a Lotus.
