The problem with side pods

**AtomJohnny** · July 27, 2012, 08:33 AM

May be it's a Euro trend.

This car, that I posted a clip of in the Rotrex thread, also has wings and side pods. Definitely not the same car.

It's not a V8 either. It's a four that's had similar treatment to Calscots to make it 400HP.

I think, looking at the height of the airbox, that it may have even started life as an Atom 1.

True. I think one of the european Atom 1 owners had his car styled to look like the V8. Referred to as an Atom 1.5 as it now has the Honda instead of the original engine.
