How much does it weigh? I don't see any real advantage over an Atom unless you count the single seat (which I would find a downgrade personally). I'm sure it's really fun either way.

An Atom has so much drag. The fact that this has body panels alone would give it a huge advantage over an atom. Then add the front aero, undertray, and rear aero, and My guess is that this thing would destroy an Atom around a high speed track. Though without the ability to share its epicness with others, I don't know that I would take one over an atom. (Good thing I'm not in the position to have to make that decision.)

One thing nobody has mentioned is that w/ a single seat, it's a lot easier to balance the weight dist. L to R, w/o depending on a passenger of roughly similar weight. Also, it's gotta be a cool feeling to pilot it from the center of the car, I bet that makes it feel that much more special and unique.

This car is useless for everything except racing but i like the idea of being able to drive to the track. Of course, if you can afford this car, you can afford the trailer to tow a real f3 car.

I'm a sucker for single seaters also, formula cars first and sports racers second. I own a Dallara F3 car but I'd still love to have each of these.
