I'm sure a lot of you know Glenn Stephens. He's the gentleman behind TraqMate GPS-based data acquisition systems... plus he's an active racer who runs both a top-flight Lotus Eleven and also a Spec Miata. But have you ever taken a moment to really look carefully at his Eleven? In this article, I've tried to figure out what makes it so very, very quick:

Bonus: here's one of the most exciting race videos I've ever seen. A brief but scary off-course excursion plus lots of passing!
