I thought you guys had already broke into the 1:19s. I run the Yellow Z06 #50.

Atom is crazy fast for sure.

September 15-17 is our AtomFest event. We'll have 30+ Atoms there, some will be very quick and we do expect to be in the teens by the end of the event. Stay tuned ...

Sure, I run a stock C5 and 1:29 is my fastest time. And that's for a stock LS1 with Kumho MXs.

It's all in how much of that 10/10ths you want to do.

This car has now run a best of 1:21.0. We expect an Atom to run in the teens before the end of September.

shame US get the not so powerful version, atom the honda supercharged 300hp is a beast

[1965cobra427]

Untrue. US Atoms are available with exactly the same power plant options as the UK Cars. In addition, early US Atoms were also available with seversl supercharged versions which were not available in the UK built car. In factory testing the US 245HP car was 0.1 sec quicker 0-60 than the 300HP UK car.

i would like to see them use toyota or chevys new V6 in one of these. The sound of the superchargered k20 is annoying.

I wish I was closer, that will be fun. I've run with Eddie Hill quite a few times at Hallett, not a fair fight for sure! Good luck to you.
