Hi Gary. Just seen this post!

How did you get on? Sounds awsome!

By the way, the new atom V8 has a suzuki engine!!!!!!

its got hyabussa heads and the rest to match

it was shit tbh, wouldnt recomend it to anyone, the bloke next to me had a brake pedal and was being very over cautious with it and i had to go 40 through the tree section which is the best bit, only alowed to floor it along the sraight with a couple of coned chicanes
i can sort of understand him being like that coz i would prob be the same with a stranger driving my atom, but it was the same with the ferrari i went in aswell, never thought i would say it but, boring
if anyone is lookin to do one of these experiance days then either go for rally or single seater
i doubt very much they will pussy about on the rally coz being on the limit is the name of the game and in the singleseater theres no-one to stop or tell you what to do

Ive done a Ferrari day in a F430 and I drove it to the limit the whole time, the guy next to me only pushed me harder . Too bad your experience wasnt as good as mine.

well not everyone is as amazing as you steve

That does sound shit mate! Sorry to hear it! If your gonna let someone drive your Atom (which i wouldnt ) let them do it properly or not at all!

Drove a F355 years ago at Thruxton , that was amazing.
