Dampening my enthusiasm

Post by redace » Sat Oct 29, 2005 4:22 pm

Just returned from my test drive in the 245 Atom with Tom.  You guys weren't kidding about the acceleration!!  I'd ordered the car before the test and my confidence was well founded.  My 16-year-old son loves it and even my wife was impressed although she thinks the money should be spent on new shoes!!!!!

I'm pretty confident I have the right spec for my first Atom but my only area of doubt is this:
What suspension should I choose for mostly road use and the occasional track day with a 160bhp Atom ???

Stock suspension.

You can always upgrade later.

There's just no pleaseing some people, especially women.  I showed her the site and although she said they looked good she mumbled something about  ???Jimmy Choo ???  I've done my research and they'd be usless in an Atom !!

By the way what clothing would I need for a track day?  (Besides an Atom of course !!!!!!!!!!)
