Designed from the start for a perfect weight distribution with the
engine to the side of the driver, the Atomic also features a shaft driven rear
axle which means this bike engined car is just as happy in traffic as the
track. If you are ready to attack your local road and track in the lightest way
possible, this is the exocar for you.
The Atomic’s chassis is a fully triangulated steel
space frame and has been designed to provide a high level of strength for the
single-seat exocar. The main chassis tubes are arranged efficiently to absorb
the loads at the node points such as the roll hoop and the top of the suspension
connection points. The design used computer simulated loads and was refined
through real world testing.
The 998 cc power plant from the R1 provides 150 hp on
tap for your 735 pound Atomic. With such a high power-to-weight ratio you are
in the company of supercars. Since ride quality is always a personal
preference, the Atomic features fully adjustable suspension that can be
adjusted in ride height and damping to achieve the perfect feel for the driver.
For steering, a 2.8 turn lock-to-lock rack is included standard or choose to
upgrade to a 2.4 turn unit with faster ratio.
Oh, and if this isn’t crazy enough for you, don’t
forget that you can get turbo kits for the R1 motor to push it to 235 hp.
