the atom around outlton park was awsome!! a very technical circuit and a car that can handle it easily. as with any track the morning is spent learning it and feeling out the lines, braking/entry points etc, the afternoon just flies by! The atom has more grip than you think for such a lightweight motor, the only sliding issues i found was when holding the throttle around a corner, even the slightest hesitation moves the back end (although this is easily fixed by planting your right foot and it never gets out of control). In fact, it was obvious to me the car could've gone so much faster round the circuit, the only limitation was the human element! still, great fun and such an experience, a definate for anyone who hasn't taken it out yet!
