That Areil (?) Atom is basically a motor with wheels attached..........The only other serious thing out there that day was the Vette.....and if you noticed it was open to anyone with MONEY..................Thanks it was a good show .....Mike :thumbup:

:shocked: My palms are sweating... nojoke
The racer in that Ariel was a ringer; he was hitting apexes like a Pro. :bowdown:
(Loved it when he got up on the rev limiter! :thumbup:)
The Z06 had more top-end for sure; but his race was lost in the twisties...
Taking an Ariel to a "Track Day": like taking a handgun to a hatchet fight!

I wonder what would have happened, if that racer brought along a buddy, who had one of these???

I think that it would have been: "GAME ON"!! :2thumbs:

Wow!!!:yes::yes::yes::yes:

:agree: :agree: :agree:

[Peter Aawen]

Shame we couldn't get to see the same lap from the Z06 perspective.... I suspect it might've been coming along behind pretty hard!! :2thumbs:

Not much else out there anywhere near those two, and didja see the bike rider he rounded up on a curve jump as the Atom went by?! I reckon the biker might not've expected any passing move at all, let alone one taking the long way round!! :yikes: :2thumbs:

Great vid! Thanks :thumbup:

Very cool! And the atom only costs about 32k American dollars.

Driving "The Ring" has long been on my bucket list. Sadly, this is my bucket.

Wrong. They would be all over the place if that were the case. They start at $64k+ and go to $85k+.

I guess I should add that the prices I quoted are for the street version. The track version starts under $60k.

[Bob Denman]

A link to their website: prices start at $64,000... They're STILL a bargain! :thumbup:

[Chupaca]

Probably a whole lot more fun if you were actually there...:thumbup: doesn't have to be there but would be a nice one...:2thumbs:

[flaggerphil]

The Atom driver has driven competitively and obviously knows the 'Ring. That he can heel and toe speaks volumes. That the Vette had a brake light out speaks volumes, too...at least to me.

Just imagine back when the 'Ring was a Formula 1 track. There were places during a race where you could crash and no one would know.

:yikes:

I'd love to go to Germany and drive the track one day, but it's not going to happen.
