Default Eddie FourFather Hill Ariel Atom Track Demonstration

Eddie FourFather Hill will have his 2012 Ariel Atom 3 demonstrator at Eagles Canyon Raceway tomorrow and Sunday, November 9 and 10, and there is no charge to come and watch. So if you haven't yet seen how quick a 1325 pound, 300 horsepower car can get around a road race track, here is your chance.

Eagles Canyon Raceway, 13 miles northeast of Decatur, Texas, on highway 51. Website is eaglescanyon.com and there is a link to it at the bottom of the Ariel Atom page on my www.eddiehillsfuncycles.com website.

Forecast both days is sunny, temp in the 70's, and 10-12 mph wind.

Serious fun!

Eddie

Eddie,

That Ariel Atom is too cool (and fast)! Enjoyed running with you on the track and meeting you afterwards (I was in the #13 GTA car and my wife Dani was parked next to you in the Silver Vette).

Hi, Brad,

I enjoyed meeting you, too, and talking briefly with your lovely wife. She said she had a good time, and her smile confirmed it.

We had one minute and 57 second laps both Saturday and Sunday, and as usual did not have to do anything to the Atom except add some 93 octane gas, so it was, again, a very enjoyable outing for us.

Hope to see you again at the Nov 23rd Open Track day, or the Toy Run Dec 7.

Cheers,

Eddie

Hello Eddie,

She did have a good time! 1:57 is smoking! I'm impressed with the Atom...the beauty is that it is street legal too! I should be at the Toy Run, have a bunch of travel between now and then.

All the best,

Brad

Over 130 mph and some exciting gee readings at Eagles Canyon. The data is from my TraqMate recorder.



Huge fun, and very rarely have to do anything to the Ariel Atom except put 91 or 93 octane gas in it.
