There were actually 11 Atoms there - however I am so pleased with the 3.5R rebuild that I can take your (tongue in cheek?) criticism with a smile!

- As to the pads you should try sitting in an unpadded Atom after it has sat in the Cyprus sun for a while! 8)

The Windscreen definitely gives better aero (it also has the clear acrylic side panels)

- I discovered last Sunday at Silverstone that it actually achieves 160 mph and that you can talk to a passenger (and be heard) at 100mph!

EVERYTHING I ever posted had a smile behind it. It's something that many people never understood. (Especially the ones that didn't know me personally)

I only have two principles for this sort of thing.

1. It's only a bloody Internet Forum. Lighten up.

And

2. Everyone is entitled to their opinion (even if it's wrong, and especially if it's mine).


Seriously, it's smashing to see several Atoms together in a Molecule - even if it's stationary (And yours looks super mean after it's Massive Makeover...)

Looking forward to seeing lots more on Saturday.
