I've been describing the video to a friend on facebook before seeing any comments I said "so easy to control past the limit too.... I must have one" going against the grain somewhat when people everyone seems to be saying that the Atom is twitchy and difficult to control hehe Looks very intuitive to me!

The bloke driving obviously knows the ring very well and isn't a stranger to high performance machinery, I'm not saying what he did there couldn't be learned by the average bloke, but most wouldn't be able to jump in and drive it like he did.
