Strange he wasn't black flagged. It's as if he thought it was an RMA day with passing allowed on both sides or he was just an absolute tool and didn't care :o Luckily I didn't see too many idiots when I was out on track but then I did spend most of the day plugged into a charger ;D

That chap in the red Alfa was an utter tool. He passed me a couple of time on the wrong side. Luckily i give everyone a wide birth, and use my mirrors extensively or it could have been a crash each time.... :doh:

Sorry, Nick. My comment was aimed at Atom 4 owners with wings, not yours..

Cheers,

Putting drag/ top speed to one side, aren't you cornering faster? Surely you must be.

My cornering speed is limited by my sphincter! Not the car. I doubt the wings have little effect at the cornering speeds we do. They look nice tho ;D

Ah good point, I forgot about your wings. Would be interesting to see a like for like comparison.

Great video Nick. What an absolute bandit in that Alfa - it's not hard to follow the rules :o

Very interesting to see the speed difference between Pete's 4 and your car on the straights too.

I wonder how much drag my wings make? 10mph? I was going to take um off to see at one point. But did'nt get around to it...

Great vids, can definitely see the confidence in the car and track growing throughout the sessions. Glad we got some dry running in the end although your commute back home in the rain couldn't have been much fun! ;D

First time around Silverstone. Took me a while to learn the layout, and was only just getting the gears right towards the end.

Select HD and the highest res you can....

Still not pushing hard on the braking or cornering, but i'm still learning the car and I really enjoyed it. 8)

Here's a clip of one of my fastest (but scrappy) laps of the day in the Tesla - I was basically getting two or three laps before the battery overheated and I lost 10-20mph on the straights :doh:

Great to meet you all. I was very jealous of you guys when the track finally dried out.

Looking forward to seeing footage from the Atoms! ;D

Can’t wait to see some footage hint hint :)
