Great video. Love watching some who really can pedal, wring the car.
Interesting what he said about quick shifting from 6th-4th; I occasionally struggle doing that in mine. Popped it in 2nd once. That was quite a moment #browntrousers

Nice find! I was wondering when we'd see it driven in the dry. It looks surprisingly manageable in Stig's capable hands. And a 1:16.0! Wow.
Re: The Atom Video Thread - Post links to Atom videos here
0.9s off the atom V8
I'm assuming that was the 320 version?

Nope 350.
Atom 4, Clio v6, & some other cars obviously.

If they test the quaife 350 it seems that will be faster than the v8, surely they shave off 0.9 with that box

Sounds like the Atom won’t be invited back for 2021 with all the comments about it being the benchmark etc.
Laughed at his comment about not wanting another right hand bend at Combe because he was getting soaked. Made me buy some waterproof trousers in readiness though.

GR Yaris CP for when it rains, Atom 4 for when it doesn’t.

They’re called water resistant for an Atom

Doubtless makes them more expensive....

Sailing salopettes are the answer for very wet drives otherwise I find water ends up getting in between the jacket and trousers. I also recommended have motorcycle gloves that go over the jacket cuffs otherwise you'll end up with a wet elbow and the waterproofing works both ways
