A Lotus Elise is not a common sight at a dragstrip but Lee Connor has turned his into a dedicated 1/4 mile warrior!
Over the past few private test days Lee has been getting plenty of seat time and is chipping away nicely having already dipped down into the low 9s with the goal of achieving 8s next time out.
