Lovely stuff Paul.

That 4 might have an extra 100BHP and a far greater spread of torque so it should be a bit quicker.

I'm looking forward to getting the 4 on track next year!

350BHP and the Öhlins!

If i’m correct the one of Koen is a 320 and ohlins

Chasing an Atom 4 at the 1:50 mark and at the 10:00 mark. That thing is fast. Fastest lap of the Atom 4 was 1:17.061 versus my 1:20.160.

Nice driving Paul! looks like fun and a lovely technical track, thanks for sharing.

This was my first ever track day, July 2018 at Castle Combe, it was a fantastic day, other than the fact my mate binned how Exige!
I did Bedford Aerodrome later in the year, hoping for a few runs in 2020.
I really do fancy Spa.....

Good stuff. Thanks for posting CAGED.

Unusual camera angle too. I prefer to see the driver inputs but still a nice vid.

Yeh, it was the first time Pete, so I will play with GoPro positions next time, it was all a bit of a last minute rush.

Fair enough!

For next time... A bit further back nearer the engine is good too IMO.

We NEED to hear more of that lovely charger SCREAMING!

Music to my ears!

Yep, I agree Pete.

Have you planned any Track Days for 2020?

Not yet. Might post up a thread. Would be good to get a few Atoms / Nomads along to some localish.

We can compare the cars and generally have a good chat!

Would be awesome. I'm from Belgium and I'm planning to do some trackdays in the UK as well. Would love to join you guys.

I'm semi-tempted with a track day in the Nomad, but I have a feeling that sliding round corners is frowned upon?

Do it! Drifting IS a no no! But a bit of sliding is fine. If your on road tyres there is no issue.

Slap some sports tyres on and come have fun! As long as your not Scandinavian flicking the car, or on off-road tyres I am sure you will be fine as long as you don't take the mickey.

The Nomad is softer than an Atom but on 18's with sports tyres it should be good.

Very cold first trackday of the year at Ecuyers. Some patches of ice in the morning that thawed by noon, but never dried up. Driving on Avon ZZR tyres that are great in the dry but have absolutely no grip in the wet. Was sliding around some wet corners and lost the back end in a wet-dry transition. Spun off into the grass but luckily didn't hit anything.
After some cleaning I was joined by a Megane RS on track and took the driver for a passenger lap.
