Can't imagine how that feels. I believe that beats liter bike power/weight figures.

I would LOVE an Ariel Atom.

Wife won't allow two toy cars, and the Atom is just 100% unpractical...

How would this ever have any chance at traction? It's within a few pounds of an F-1 car and not too far off in power. F-1 cars require huge amounts of downforce and very prcise tuning (not traction control .) to get the power down. Not to mention much wider slicks. This looks like a drifters wet dream.
