Ariel Atom Videos

A collection of videos from my time with my old Atom 2 300, and now my new Atom 4 350.

Not racing, just for fun! :-)

    Es wäre sehr schade, wenn du aufhörst. Aber verständlich. Familie geht vor. Generell möchte ich nicht in einer Welt leben, in der engagierte Menschen mit guten Absichten und Erfolgen Angst vor Extremisten haben müssen. Hier ist halt der Staat gefragt, das ist genau seine Aufgabe.

    Hi , I have one too but not driven it hard yet , I wonder if you could tell me your experiance level? I have just started caterham academy this year and been on coomb twice in the academy cars - managing a quite slow (but fast for me !) 128s laps with my son getting a 120! when i compare some of your cornering speeds i find them a bit low compared to the academy car so just great to hear what sort of percentage you were driving at . love the atom and the caterham is a real hoot especially given its lack of power and cheapness (relative to atom)

    I drive for fun. Cornering at Combe is at safe levels due to not wanting to have an incident. Probably 80% of max. Definitely more to come from the car and tyres. If you have race experience you could go significantly faster. I have no race experience. This is fun for me and there are lots of incidents each day when untrained people try too hard or suffer from the red mist. Combe can bite. Also remember these are track days and you aren't racing anyone. You are supposed to drive with safety margin to ensure safety for everyone with massively different cars and experience levels. Driving at 100% with different cars and complete novices on track at the same time is a recipe for lots of incidents.

    The level of grip the Atom has without special Aero is insane, and you sir are a mighty pilot! Keep up the good work, and I might say that you are not just into amateur racing but you did sometimes a couple of professional racing of your own, the perfect trace at every corner isn't for everybody!

    Camera is mounted on the black fibre glass bodywork just under the engine air intake. Its not on the removable section, its on the part bolted to the car. Its drivers eye height to give the correct angle. The mount is NOT fitted in the channel profile pic or it would be visible in that picture on the extreme right.

    It shifts really hard on straights. Your lines are good but it seems to me you're a bit shy especially in the fast corners. Is it the lack of downforce or some balance issue who makes you feather the throttle ? The car seems to be settled to understeer entry and mid-corner. On exit it seems to nicely squat and get off.

  • @arielatomvideos4350

    It is fair to say I am careful in the fast corners. I am slowly learning to trust the car at higher speed in the corners, and understand the dynamics. Great fun!

    How are you finding the GR Yaris on track? I am considering one for a winter track car/daily assuming I can find one to test out. Re: lap times, Atom 3.5R does Castle Coombe in a 1:10 Porsche GT3 similar. Atom 4 from my experience is a little quicker than the GT3 by about 2s a lap for a decent driver. So round there a 1:08 would be a quick time imo assuming it's cold so the Atom doesn't overheat the tyres and engine that is. On a hot day you can easily be 4s slower than that.
