Yes ineed.

Surprises me that Ariel UK aren't leading the way as they used to. Or perhaps this sort of beast is available, it's just no one here has asked

[John Scherrer]

.. Well it's Easter and prime time for Ariel UK announcements ..

I have a hard time sizing up suspension systems. Ohlins may be the king of the hill, or JRI might be tied, or JRI better, or perhaps both are irrelevant as the shock duty on Atoms is so low. I just don't know. We don't have good bench info on shocks.

425BHP Is more like it! Say 600Kg weight gives 700BHP/tonne. Oh yes please!

That would be brilliant!

Which direction will TMI go now that the Ariel 4 is based of a different engine? Shomehow, I have a hard time seeing how the K20C1 in the Ariel 4 could beat the 3RS output of 425hp on 93 octane. A forged bottom K24Z7 will probably always make more power. Direct injection is not enough to compensate for 20% loss in displacement.
