Is this too bonkers orf track?

Just reading Autocar 13/4/04 and the review of the above.

Can it be driven hard, like an Elise, on B-roads and does it respond as well (I won't be tracking)?

Do Atomites wear their crash helmets whilst commuting/hooning about and what's the overall analysis of these things next to not just the Elise but Caterham product?

Thanks Bruce.

I think it's a minimum long sleeve/helmet configuration then, although round here (the north) I suspect rotten cabbage rather than polite admiration/applause could be the preferred form of third party attention!

It's a wild card idea but hail to thee for such an outrageous selection - how do you think this lower powered variant I'm looking at would compare with the regular, loonster contraption?
