That's me in the passenger seat for the timed cct.
And yes I was absolutely loving Russ giving it the full beans and hearing the charger shriek!
Brilliant fun! Definitely a highlight of the day.

The Atom was a lot harder to control in slides etc, due to vastly greater grip (track day tyres, Russ was on 50/50 semi-chunkies), and less progressive slides. So much so the instructor told me not to bother with some of the later exercises. But when timed the Atom was an absolute monster, and a good margin faster than the Nomad. However for both Ariel's around a short twisty cct (with un-even surface patches) it was not possible to put all the power down. I had to short shift out of 2nd as otherwise I was (as per Russ's vid) fish tailing like a mad man. Fun times tho.
Gutted my GoPro failed me AGAIN so no vids from me!
