Ariel Atom Experience

Ariel Atom Experience

The Ariel Atom is a high performance sports car, with a motorcycle-derived supercharged 325bhp engine. The Atom is unusual in that it is exoskeleton — the chassis is the body — and therefore lacks a roof, windows and other features normally found on road cars. With a top speed of around 150mph, the power to weight ratio is something to behold, with a 0-60mph time of a fraction under 2.5 seconds - this is one outstandingly fast lightweight car! Having beaten the lap times of a Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 and a Porsche Carrera GT, this vehicle is not only stunning looking, but an absolute monster out on the track!

Agenda

Your experience will begin with a welcome introduction and a demonstration lap with an instructor who will run through the safety & driving techniques in a performance saloon car. This gives you the opportunity so see how the instructor takes the racing line and corners to give you the most out of your experience. You will then strap into the driving seat of the Ariel Atom for 3 or 4 hair raising laps (3 at the longer track in Surrey), followed by 1 high speed lap as a passenger in a performance saloon car driven by an instructor. Your day will finish with a presentation of a certificate of your driving experience.
