that had a perfect launch,almost no tire spin.

@FreemanAndCo Well I said it was only an example, didn't I? Besides, an all aluminum ohv V8 only weighs about 450lbs and is about 25in long, 21in high ( with carb, no air cleaner), and 21ins wide (no exhaust) it could fit. If they can shoehorn one into a crx, you could fit one in an atom.
And as I said before, the comment WAS kinda a joke.

@Warblade118 A 383 engine is probably bigger than the whole Atom car.
-
@eaglesdood16 Even though my comment was kind of a joke why wouldn't it run 10's with a small block chevy? The engine that's in the atom in this video makes 450HP, a small block 383, for example, would have absolutely no trouble at all making 450HP. Hell, I think you could buy crate engines with that much power. Probably weigh more than the engine it has in the video, but a hell of a lot cheaper.

@Warblade118 yeah sure if you have the time money and resources but it wouldnt be a 10 second car
-
can I get one with a sbc?

@jonnytooze choosing the right turbo can make a smooth broad powerband that starts at 2500 to 3krpm you can autocross or track, its only the dyno queens that use massive turbos and get a max hp tune that have that ridiculous turbo lag
-
@c4menace and a ford
-
@inagod Go on their website, there is a 300 HP option... Oh and they got a V8 500 HP version coming out. Research shit before you comment dip.

more like 150 hp,this car is a 1000lbs,500 kilo's,with 450 hp this is almost 1000 horsepower per ton.It should,set up properly go in the 8 second range at 160 plus.The math says it should go 7.60 at 175 mph in the quarter.
wow... is that the stock engine thats been modded or did they swap it

The Atom comes from the Ariel factory with several power options of 220, 275 and 300hp. This is a one off hand built Ariel Atom capable of over 450bhp. The engine is a Civic Type-R which has been completely re built to the highest specification. The power to weight ratio is over 900 bhp per ton! and gets to 60mph in under 3 secs.
