they said about 20,000 pounds...

now this is an amazing car and all...and I know they kinda have to make it look faster than the bike, but to be fair, the vehicle had a CTR mill that was S/C'ed to the tune of 300BHP...why not put it up against a 1000cc bike vs. a 600cc bike??

But I would take one in a minute...even if it only came with a Civic Type R motor Naturally Aspirated...

That thing would be fun to tear around in. Kinda cool that the company consists of only 7 people. I wonder what the waiting list would be like

[habsfan]

thats too cool, it kicked the shit outta that 600 RR :eek:

[Hash_man]

That thing is awesome... they say it starts at less than 20,000 pounds, so maybe it does come un-supercharged... either way its amazing, something that weighs so little, and so bare-bones it would be amazing to drive... Hell, it beat the carrera GT around their track :eek: :thumbsup: :drool:

I'm pretty sure the 600s are faster around the track. :)

the bike lost more ground on the straits vs. the turns so a larger cc of bike would have been a better match...


not to aruge I mean the machine is incredible...

0-60 in 2.0 somethin seconds bahah :drool:

[civic_stylez]

that thing is amazing! having the honda engine in there would make it easy to work on too. it wouldnt be like an enzo where youre afraid to touch the gas cap...

It did, it went around faster than a Enzo or just missed it by a few, can't remember they aired it was 2 weekends ago. It was a great end to the season.:thumbsup:


The Ariel Atom is like a motorbike, with four wheels, which means it's hard to fall off it. The supercharged Honda engine develops 300bhp, but the car only weighs 500kg which as those of you with GCSE Maths will know, equals 600bhp per tonne (that's more than a Ferrari Enzo). It also does 0-60mph in 2.9 seconds, as long as you can change gear quick enough.

According to Jeremy, this is how driving should be: fast and close to the ground. You can get one for £20,000 too, which means that your wife may not actually leave you in revenge.

is this the cart with the b16b supercharger in it?

[JAYMEZ]

Watch the movie lol

[GreyFox]

That's gotta be scary to drive though. I mean going so fast and you can see the ground underneath your feet and there's only one belt holding you in. Better than a bike I guess though.

The wind blowing his face back is priceless though :D

Anyone know of a mirror for the video ?
The one posted has had the file removed.

I got the whole ep I might have the clip of it too, I'll throw it online once I cut the clip out or find the clip only.
