Just read an article in my local newspaper about this cool looking race car,
called the Ariel Atom. Check it out:

http://www.racesimcentral.net/

"the Atom is road legal and available LHD or RHD
the race version (bottom right, black with spoilers) is powered by a 220bhp
Rover K series engine
it accelerates in 3.5s from 0-100km/h"

How about a MOD! Just kidding...

There's a guy on the ringers list having a 290bhp one built! (gulp)

Ah yes, the Ariel Atom ... looks like a real fun car, no?

Definitely from the same schools as Lotus 7's and bike engined Lotus 7's and
such.

If I could get one road legal over here I'd consider getting one ... but if
I had my druthers, I'd get one of these:

Also, the guys that make the Hyperstimulator (best wheel & pedal controller
out there if you ask me) are also the Aussie distributors for the Ariel Atom
(which makes sense).

Take care,

TB

Cool! I wish they'd make a simulation game with this type of cars, for us
lesser mortals...

Cheers, thanks for the feedback. (and Robin and Vail)
