... Pete, I watched some of your videos at CC and Goodwood, looks very grunty with all that torque. I guess you need to respect it more so than the SC machines? It handles very nicely, and on map 2 the delivery is smooth. No issue tbh on warm tyres in the dry. You can also pull higher gears with le...

Quick question: How often does the SADEV box require servicing / inspection? How many years / miles before if has to be removed? Presumably its going to have to come out every 3 years (assuming ~2000 miles per year).... Or something like that.

Gearbox out sounds pricey!

White frame FTW.

Peter, what setup regarding the camera do you have? I guess it integrates with the TFT screen? Just a GoPro Hero 5 black using the GPS tracking and accelerometer features in built to the camera. It gives you the ghetto circuit tracking, speedo and G meter. It works a treat. Something i discovered a...

Glorious Goodwood! 8) The car got a bit hot (temp warning for a few degrees over 100 at the end of the fastest section) but otherwise flawless running all day. It was 24C in the afteroon! Took me a few laps to get my head around the circuit and i got better as the day progressed. Only passed once al...

Some clips of all of the limited dry running at Combe last week. Starting to get to grips with the car a bit more now. Plenty more pace to come, but i had fun and no damage which is the main thing! 8) 1 - https://youtu.be/-kIldYu8uII 2 - https://youtu.be/TSazIR-JveM 3 - https://youtu.be/z64zJK8YBRY ...

The optional alu mirrors are essential. The stock ones are huge and horrid!

Even Ariel NEVER fit them to their demos!

I believe thats a quote from the spec sheet. Aligns with what i was told when speccing my car. The box is designed for track use.

That has everything! Carbon wheels and sequential is £20k alone. WOW

Amazing machine, but if i had £100K to spend it wouldn't be on an Atom! Crazy money IMO.

Each to their own i guess....

Per corner?

Looks GREAT.

That layout looks SO MUCH BETTER than the one on the 4.

Bit far, but interested....

Don't even try if you have the sports exhaust fitted. Its way too loud. If possible fit the cat it should help a bit. 95dB is low it depends how they measure it though (where on the track, how far away etc). 105dB static will be fine on a standard backbox. I did a thread on here some time ago with s...

Lovely!

But how much was it if you don't mind..... They are a bit pricey from memory!

I would suggest getting the LSD and baffled sump installed at build time, as they will be pricey to add later.

Enjoy your prize!
