Mike Gulett blogs about Ariel’s barely legal road rocket that’s not for the faint of heart.
Looking more like it belongs on the Bonneville Salt Flats or Formula One Circuit, the street-legal Ariel Atom boasts the power-to-weight ratio of a kick-ass racecar. Sarasota Café Racer Randy McGowen drove his ’07 Atom, above, in the 2008 HOT ROD Power Tour. He participated in the weeklong road and track event in his tube-framed rocketship powered by a supercharged Chevy four-banger. The year before he defied logic by driving it, sans windshield, top and trunk, cross-country from the West Coast to Sarasota, Florida!
