Ex Lotus F1 star Martin Donnelly will once again be competing in the Elise Trophy this year, and will be racing at Brands Hatch over Easter.
After successfull outings in a class A Elise at Donington Park and Spa Francorchamps in 2007, this year he will be racing a class B Lotus 2-Eleven, so there should be some fireworks towards the front of the grid
