I agree..
well the atom runs like a 12.0 or 12.1
with a 0-60 of like 3.5 sec

but still wouldve liked to have seen it!
just showing the evo out performs a tiny car with masive hp to weight ratio in the turns!

I'm suprised somebody hasn't said "repost" yet, because it is..... x3.

In my opinion, that test proves nothing. The Atom has already been proven to be faster than Evo's any MANY other cars around tracks. Even whe driven on Top Gear. Ben Collins, I mean, the stig, drove the Atom at 1:19 and the FQ400 got only 1:24, I do believe. I could be wrong on the times, but I do know the Atom, in the hands of a professional driver will outperform the Evo, hands down. It's not even a fair comparison.

the atom is better handling car...and is lighter... power to weight. This is definitely a repost but a good dig up. The evo driver around the end cone 180'd too hard ...killed the time.

Light cars are crippled when there is a fat passenger. However, I agree Atom should have killed the Evo.
