ADORO este carro , após o ultimo filme do Jeremy Clarkson ainda fiquei a adorar mais ... aquele barulho do compressor meu deus !!!

Penso que custa 50 mil euros cá em PT . Era sem duvida um belo investimentos .. é Adrenalina concentrada ! Claro que será um carro para track-days e pouco mais ! Mas deve dar um gozo enorme de conduzir. !

citação:I have long wondered what it would be like to own some of the machines that I keep reading about in magazines. What are they like in daily use, what's it like to take them to their limits? Eventually a time came when I decided to stop wondering and start doing.... <center>http://www.dpcars.net/</center>

E pensas bem.


Pelo ke deu a entender o autor do projecto,tudo começou por acaso.

citação:This project is the result of a few happy coincidences. One is that since the V8 is still unproven (mine is only the second motor in existense) I was looking for a way to test it and shake out whatever bugs we find in a proven chassis before doing all the re-engineering to fit it into the dp1. The engine has been in development for over 4 years and a prototype has been running for over a year, so the confidence is high enough for me to spend my own money on it, but I'd like to separate engine testing and chassis testing. It would also be nice to be able to demonstrate to prospective buyers what the engine will be like (and then imagine 30% less weight and AWD), so a two seater would be good. About the same time I took my first trip down to Ashland and decided to order an Atom. It was also then that the M5 convinced me that the more power, the better. It was quite obvious what needed to happen. In talking to Brammo it came out that they have a potential interest in offering a V8 of this type but that reliability was a concern. They were (and are) quite busy with ongoing projects and adding another one was not something they wanted to do. So I offered to take it on, along with assuming the risk in case things did not work out. Brammo's involvement would basically be limited to letting me do it and providing the necessary information (subject to the contractual limitations of their Ariel license). I'm always up for a challenge. Jumping in I had no idea what it was going to take or even how much it would cost (I assumed 'a lot' and I was right) but I never let such things stop me. Original target, as you may recall, was to have the car ready in June. Needless to say it took a bit longer. Not a big surprise. And it's not quite done yet (see below). I'll spare you all the twists, turns, trials and tribulations of the development process to date. Let's just say it hasn't been easy. Many would have given up by now. I had also briefly discussed some chassis changes with Brammo but basically that idea got shot down so aside from the powerplant my car is standard. I may do something with that later on, on my own. Ditto for aerodynamic tweaks for which I have some ideas. But first things first.

Na europa usa o motor honda 2.0ivtec do type r, nos u.s.a., usa o 2.0 mesmo do opel gtc turbo e opc e 2.2, ambos da GM, mas fabricados na alemanha.

The Engine
In Europe, the Atom comes standard with Honda's four-cylinder iVTEC engine -- the same engine used in Honda Civic and Civic Type-R models. This might seem a bit pedestrian, but the Honda iVTEC, with a displacement of 1,998 cubic centimeters and a power output of 220 horsepower (280 horsepower with tuning), is considered by many to be the best four-cylinder production engine in the world.

In North America, the Atom comes standard with a General Motors Ecotec engine made in Germany. This is the same engine GM uses in the Chevy Cobalt SS and Saturn models, and it doesn't lose anything in the translation. Available in both 2.2-liter and 2.0-liter supercharged versions, the Ecotec engine delivers between 140 and 300 horsepower, depending on the specific package. At the low end of the performance spectrum, what Brammo considers its "budget" model, the Atom could keep up with a Porsche 911 Turbo. At the high end of the spectrum, the Ecotec-outfitted Atom just might be the fastest car in the world.

Realmente é um carro fantastico, a condução deve ser mui identica a um kart, mas com outro fulgor.

Fantastico, quem quer, pode e adora track days, aí está o carro ideal.

Que máquina

Então deixa ver se percebi
podemos pedir a versao com turbo (300 cv 506kg) ou sem turbo (220 cv 456kg)

How Are They Street Legal? Most Extreme Cars We’ve Ever Tested! | 4K​

The Ariel Atom has always been extreme, the 4R variant added extra aero and 25% more power, and now the 4RR arrives for the truly unhinged among us. With another 125bhp (for a 525bhp total) it’s the most powerful Ariel Atom ever, and the power-to-weight ratio is nigh-on 800bhp per tonne!

It’s the maddest, most extreme car we’ve ever tested at the Top Gear Track… or is it? Might the Nichols N1A, a recreation of a V8 McLaren Can-Am racer, be even more bonkers?

 

[topspeedPT]

Is 780bhp per tonne actually useable on the road?

The Ariel Atom 4RR is the fastest, most powerful and most exclusive Atom ever created. Find out what CAR magazine’s Ben Barry thinks of it in our latest video.

Built to celebrate the company’s 25th anniversary, the Atom 4RR produces 525bhp, weighs under 700kg and hits 0-62mph in just 2.4 seconds. Price? A mere £250k with only 25 being bult. Is Ariel’s latest creation the ultimate track car?
