We're all at that place that Atoms dare go............. the track! 

In fairness, there was a red Atom at Brands GP 2/3 weeks ago. Didn't see it much though.

There's 4 of us at Spa next week. Got Snet booked in November. Bit slow apart from that.

I heard that owners have suddenly woken up to the fact their cars are sooooooo ugly they just cannot be seen in public anymore.....maybe it's just a nasty rumour but sounds quite likely to me....

Funny. In fact, HILARIOUS, coming from someone with a Allroad and a Octavia. 

The x-bow doesn't picture well, I'll admit that. They do however look great in the flesh IMO.

I only drive the Skoda in the dark......wearing a disguise.....but I like the Allroad....must be my age !

In Fairness Dan and I are out about once every 10 days the rest of them are at home polishing them. Did Snetterton last week Brands GP the week before Anglesey the week before along with Donnington.

I am at Anglsesey 15 October with the Atom if anyone fancies it.

But we are really looking forward to Spa next week for two days with the X Bow's lets hope it stays dry.

KTM just keeps trying! At least they got nice wheels!

Still too heavy, too precise and no fun  :wize:

Finally- someone with a bit of sense!!!

[Monza]

"a bit" .... only !

[Bruce Fielding]

I like them too... they just don't fit me.

...and I do marginally prefer the look of the Atom from most angles...

[MonsieurX]

i've been in a ktm as a passenger and it was painfull! feels like sitting in a cement hard bucket with angles to bruise you all over as the car grips and grips (it really does!)...Over the limit though, it's controllable... Though after seeing the qualif F1 last weekend, im sure Schumi could drift gently with it!

[nickthegreek]

I got one, and i drift plenty..not very good at it though..

I kept a copy of the Atom/X-bow comparison at VIR. If the x-bow got 300 horses, and rights to the states, the only advantage I could see for the Atom might be the Atom's price advantage with TMI's newish aggressive pricing compared to the x-bow?! Maybe to many 'ifs'... but TMI must hope the X-Bow stays out!
