Excellent! Love Atoms smile Soooo cool.


Were lots there last saturday. They looked awesome all parked together in the morning when I arroved. But I never got a chance to play with any being driven in anger out on track sadly. Everytime I saw one they were on a cool down lap.

Still never been in one. Would love a passenger ride can help smile

I was at Bedford twice last week, But still sitting here bouncing in excitement at thought of another day of driving smile

I'll be there tomorrow.

I just realised about an hour ago I've forgotten to sort out insurance on track so won't be going that nuts out there :-S

Would love a passenger ride in a Viper and Atom (if I can fit in either!!)

I had the most fun of the day going round in the hammering rain!

I think there were only 3~5 cars out at that time until the green scooby estate span out.

I'm very surprised at the amount of grip in heavy rain & standing water, straight line acceleration and braking it's virtually the same as in the dry, and you have to concentrate a hell of a lot more on the bendy bits biggrin

Does anyone know what happened to that white BMW (old 3 series saloon with Opie oil stickers on the back)? It seemed to be doing fine and then span out twice in half a lap and something else happened to it at the first bend?

Anyone else a bit annoyed by that new bit of tarmac right on the bend just after the pit entrance lane? Really upsets the car and I bet it was the cause of all the spins at that point.

It was great going round in the rain on the semi slicks. Last 30 minutes were the best as they let us have a bit of fun smile
Kudos to Max for going out in the Viper without the top on ( and doing a 360 )
