Gage,why don't you buy an Atom just so Area 47 can give you a "good" tune? WTF? Do you assholes think I just fell off the fuucking tuna boat yesterday? Until Area 47 tunes a real 300+hp road racing Atom or two successfully, all this talk about a magical tune is nothing but bullshit!!
I RACE my Atom,on a real RACE track,against other RACE cars,at 100% throttle.,,and I win. I push the car HARD.
I didn't add hp to my car so I could brag about it every opportunity I get, driving around on the street "racing" canned out ricers.....!
My car broke because I pushed it way beyond what it was designed to take.Get it? Sometimes you get lucky and get away with abuse..but not often.
Push any engine to twice the standard horsepower over what it was built to take,bone stock, is asking for trouble. Take it out on a road race track and expect it to last was wishful thinking. I knew this and took the gamble. From the beginning I figured I would have to build a proper HP engine to take racing use.
That's why they make stronger parts.Even then,sh1t happens.

Madmax, while you are an automotive adventurer and a pioneer spirit, your hair trigger sense of personal insult/offense and the resulting overblown reactions never leave any room for boredom.
But please consider this: I think nearly everyone understood your situation (and I for one sympathized) and no one was trying to criticize you directly or indirectly,
even before you started swearing to make your position clear.
No one here believes in a magical tune. We all want the best possible tune for our own application. A little thread hi-jacking occurred. oops
I think you make great contributions to the forum and I hope you are more successful in the future and have less bad luck.
