Wow, that Atom is something. The GT3RS is also cool. I'm curious about what was coming after the two.
I know the Atom is amazing, but I still think that if I could choose, I'd rather have a Lotus/Caterham 7.

That draggy, trellis frame must be the cause of the understeer. I guess even all that wing can't help it. It looks cool, but sleek bodies are there for a reason- look at F1. The Airel "men in a shed" just got lazy.

According to this: Jeremy Clarkson: The Italian Job HD 720p ~ MyTopGear
It is either the Zonda-R, Lambo Superleggera, or Ferrari 458. I am guessing the Zonda-R, even though he made a reference to it in the Atom part.

Looks like a pretty good DVD. Better than a Top Gear DVD.

What is the title of this particular program? This was not a Top Gear episode.
An Ariel Atom is my dream car!
