How'd they get the front wheel onto that curb without chipping the spoiler?

I like the gen 1 elise/exige better than the revised look. Does that make me a bad person?

I've done a couple of track days with this car in attendance. It is a weapon. Here is the car on youtube..

How often do you think the tires need replacing? 550hp on tire almost the same size as the 911. I think I would want more rubber on the road.
I am curious how he managed to drop the weight from the original. Originally curb weight was somewhere around 2000lb. The ad says now it is less than 1800lbs. Originally it is pretty sparse.
