I'd rather buy a real single seater. A Lola B05/52 (A1 GP, Auto GP), for example.
Or, on a much lower budget, a Formula Renault 2.0. Still very quick in bends.

Wow! Gotta have deep pockets to afford it, but assuming the chassis can take that kind of power it will be one hell of a ride.

No claimed burgerkingring time?

Would be interesting to compare this to the Caparo T1 and the Caterham Levante. I like it!

I'll get Mr Will to take a look, there seems to be an issue that I am not clever enough to deal with

Be interested to know how durable that engine is too. How long before it needs a rebuild?

I can't see it either.

What would 200mph be like in something as open as an Atom? Is it road legal with that front wing?

I wonder if the centre console will keep my wallet and phone held securely smile

Looks very under-tyred for that sort of grunt. Bet it would be great fun!
