Default Atomic Carbon spy shots - 06jan2008

Here are a couple of shots I got of the new 2008 cars from Atomic Carbon - they look somewhat fantastic, with plenty of custom made parts and both cars feature awesome carbon fibre tub chassis.

The S2 has been around all year in various guises, gradually evolving until a layout that worked was arrived at. This, the pre-production car, is a work of art - losing any rough edges the prototypes might have had and with a swish new carbon laminate tub chassis specially made for this car. A new 4-gear gearbox and cell layout distinguish this car from the prototypes. The car should be available as an conversion for the popular RC10B4 from Associated.











The new 4WD buggy - yet to be named, but let's call it the 'S4 2008', is a revised and once more tidied up version of the car that took third overall in the UK BRCA championship series, in the hands of Chris Doughty.
Jonathan was 'slightly' (very) reluctant to let me take any photos of this car, but suffice to say it features all the latest parts from the Team Associated camp, with new steering designed by Chris Doughty.

very nice indeed, not seen either of the new cars before - very impressive.

I'm treated like paparazzi scum, so I am - but without the fringe benefits of fame and fortune.

Oh bugger, and there was me telling the wife that after some new cells, tyres etc, my spending was done, looks like the credit card will be getting used again

Any idea when the S44 bits will be released?
