Please pardon my ignorance, but what is the make of that car that looks like a bunch of tubes welded together? It looks like it would be a ton of fun.

Chris -- Ariel Atom, here is the best Top Gear segment of ALL time:

It's the Ariel Atom. It DOES look like a ton of fun. I guess we'll need to hear from whomever was in the right seat to see if they have to say about it's track performance.

great pictures. Do you have any of a grey 944 n/a?
btw: the Atom beat the Carrera GT around a track so I'd say its got some beans.

that was Steve (stentech or something liek that) and he acutally said the way the thing was set up was suprisingly NOT that great...so...maybe he will elaborate here sometime.

I went to the web site for more details and all I can say is WOW!  The shocks are mounted horizontally like on an Indy car.  Boy that looks like fun.

Chris, that is an Ariel Atom, made in England.  Akin to the Lotus 7.  That car weighs approx 1000 lbs and is supercharged with 300hp.  I think 0-60 is under 3 seconds.
