one more of the same kart. The speedo read 181 mph before a tire blew out! I love one of the top comments on the video "when he finally took off my only thought was jesus christ this must be what it's like to be Charlie Sheen" lmao

i'd like to see a video of the guy in greenswag's video driving this cart.. this thing is way bad ass, but i like the way the other dude drove much more, and it would be an awesome combo imo.. :D

yeah, those atoms would make a sick track day car for sure.. not really cut out for every day driving imo, but if you're looking for something to beat up and run on the track, can't do much better then one of these things.. :D

super stiff suspension for one thing, and i've heard they're not very comfortable on the road, tons of road noise and also vibrations..

i'm not saying you couldn't drive it on the road, just wouldn't be my first pick is all.. much better suited for a weekend on the track imo..

Lol twice! The kart posts put me in mind of the Atom and made me lament it isn't available Stateside. Talk about a worthy successor to the Lotus (and then Caterham) Seven.

And the rain quip reminds me of the story of the guy who got pulled over for speeds in the triple digits. On the cop's question of why: "My brakes went out so i wanted to get home as fast as I could before I had an accident ..." ;) cn

the one my buddy sent me a pic of was in FL so you can get them in the states apparently! i didnt think you could till i saw it sitting in front of his work with florida tags on it.

Wanna talk dream car? How about that sweet '37 Rolls from Goldfinger, but with a modern V12 drivetrain, say from the S65 Black? (And tasteful suspension upgrades to match ...) cn
