Default Plating an Ariel Atom in Canada?

There must be a way to get this done..unless they've been crash tested already and approved for road use.

Maybe as a kit car or hot rod? Ive seen the guy who owns sgt. splatters driving some crazy *** hotrods so ther emust be a way.

Ideas?

****..if the Ariel Atom is plate-able...then that's top of the bloody list. Otherwise turbo. End of discussion...finalized.

No point in getting a GT3 when for 1/6th the price i can grab an FF1600 or something for tracking funtimes.

Atom looks nice - I think they are in the 70sUSD. I sure as hell would not want to take a hit in one tho.

FYI - Brammo racing is coming to Shannonville with Atoms to drive for $1500 per day - you might want to try them out for the cost of a set of tires.

Actually, that car will take a 10% hit out the door - so that will be the cheapest thing about getting one.
