Love it Daz :D

[wowzy2248]

I dont get it how atom go very fast than other cars



[iceman241111]

@wowzy2248 Cause there lighter whenever you put a engine with 300hp on something that doesnt wiegh anything it will go fast thats why motorcycles dont need much hp to go real fast cause they wiegh nothing.

[AddersZXR4]

@iceman241111 its called power to weight ratio :)

[MKTSirHenry]

closest thing to a go-kart for the road - must be awesome to drive!

[djarum41]

Has anyone here driven one ? I ask since I tried a Caterham standard version & thats as racy as I'd like to get with a street car. Is the Atom punishing in the suspension department ?

[kyleTHEYELLOWDART]

Track sucks...

[noitazocska]

Roof Boxer helmet, i got the same in yellow :)

[fairclought7]

basically it will have 2 hayabusa engines welded together, so it will have a 2.4 liter v8 supercharged to 500 bhp.

[masonvega114]

ha 2.4 liter, just like the f1 cars but those engines would probably last a week of regular driving..

[Macgrady29]

@masonvega114 Don't think so, It's a Civic Type R engine supercharged. Civic is a car for everyday, so it would give you >100000 miles.

[fathervardy]

nice bit of driving, ppl say the atoms a really well balanced car, but its more like n 911, once it steps out you gotta get it back n quick! not quite as relaxing at a cateram! but defo more grin factor just from the sheer power!!!! not driven a 300 just the 260, i here there bringing out a 500?

[POWERKRUSH]

i heard that too. it has a motorbike inspired v6. dunno what that means as i doubt many bikes have a v6. anyway, the concept picture is basically an atom with a large handling kit. it will have traction control so that you can use all of the 500bhp. should be awesome on the track.

[fathervardy]

traction control? hopefully that will be an extra, not standard lol

v6? i heard 2.4L v8 supercharged? but i guess there loads of storys flying about. topgear should be showing it early next year on topGear... what ever they put in it im sure it will be mental!

[JeanAlesi90]

nice helmet

[TheCottonTop]

WOW! You call that a Track???

[apa1]

prob a airstrip track, looks like it.

[tenyar]

That is proper fucking mental.

I was leaning in to the corners with you. the G-forces must be incredible.

[SarraPiyopiyo]

Is the Subie stock? Was curious because of the little flame coming of the exhaust.

Bramo motorsports has setup shop near here, I get to see those little things whizzing around when I go to Ashland. :D

[dazzassti]

Scood was a STi Type RA with around 350bhp, with anti lag, hense flames... quick thing actually

Daz

[SarraPiyopiyo]

Hehe, misfiring systems can be fun.

Gonna see if I can find a vid of an Atom doing a 1/4.

[winchester8686]

he is already goin easy on the throttle, believe me that car has incredible power to weight ratio, can keep up with an enzo. I like this camera position better than the other one with top view. The soundtrack is better & the view too :) Nice vid, bumpy track tho :/

[smudgey6120]

holy mother of god......nice vid

[Messerschmitt73]

hey man this pug205 seems like its gonna blow

[dazzassti]

There is almost no traction on thhat track so anything over 3/4 throttle and it would spin up, good fun but took some reigning in and a fair bit of steering input... good fun though :-)

[j0rzeh]

roflmao at the metro it looks like its going to burn LOL

[MuhsinTheMomin]

the track looks like it needs a fix up, and it seems you cant really put your foot down.

[eltotoX]

yeah, he needs to go easier on the throttle.
