Looks very planted!
This is the titanium chassis? Right?

It's incredibly planted. To get the older car around Anglesey at the same pace I think you'd need be a lot busier at the wheel.

Here's my fastest lap from the awesome Anglesey trip organised by Mark Wetherall:

I have a 458 as well. I have no experience of the 720S but I imagine the transition is the same. Sometimes, you just need a roof. And aircon. And a stereo. Not to mention a windscreen and no helmet. And the opportunity for similar eye popping madness and a drivetrain soundtrack that makes your face...

[mention]speedmachine[/mention] that's a good point and you're right. I love my two car garage at the moment - Atom and Tesla Model 3 Performance. The Tesla is quite fun to drive in its own way and is a complete contrast to the Atom. Unfortunately I haven't got enough room to get a third card unless...

An update after the Bedford track day... My pedal is now back to where it was before the brake bleed Will chat to the factory on Monday and see what they say.

Just had the brakes sorted on my 4 and wow, what a difference I have to relearn how to properly drive this thing now especially heel and toe. The brake pedal doesn't get anywhere near the level of throttle pedal so may have to look at adjusting.

Expecting a few lock ups at Bedford on Friday

Thanks [mention]richorme[/mention] that's certainly a front runner at the moment. The frustrating thing is how hot the supercar market is at the moment especially 720s. Looks like a good one will be £160k+ instead of the £140k+ 6 months ago. I've concluded it's just 'one of those things' and not out...

I'll be there Saturday. That's good timing - would love to see the 720s!!

The R8 is probably one of the best value for money sports cars around at the moment in my opinion. You get a hell of a lot of car for your money - a much better car than a Huracan for a fraction of the price.

It'll probably be up for sale end of June/early July depending on a few things. Spec is pretty high - 350bhp, Ohlins, 2-Piece APs, aero kit, forged wheels, carbon mudguards, upgraded radiator etc. Will get a proper advert out on here and the Facebook group nearer the time. A fair few pics can be fou...

I can't comment on the savings on track - I'd say it's probably marginal at best but just look at them... 😍 Atom-071.jpg I ordered them, but are they only in black, or do I get a choice later on? Good question. I'm sure you can probably get them in a different colour. I've seen some in gold but I t...

I may have mine up for sale in a couple of months - looking to scratch the supercar itch

Congrats dude, car looks lovely!

[mention]AlanP[/mention] if you ever bring the 720s along to any events, let me know - would love a ride in it! I'll be keeping the Atom to enjoy for the summer and then it looks like a 720s will be top of the list to try
