  1. The EK9 never tried getting on the throttle to save the oversteer, just steering correction… it’s no suprise he went off.

  2. wtf. everyone turn on the Japanese transcribed captions, then use the beta translator. everything makes absolutely no sense. it’s random as hell.

  3. My thoughts at the end too… Certainly looks as though it was him driving it.

  4. that little hatch was throwing it down! its got to have a k20 in though, no way the b16b would hang with an FD civic R let alone an NSX R

  5. this video was made in 2004, there’s no such thing as “high definition televisions” in people’s homes at the time,
    and now look at the date of upload, its 2008, a time when youtube only very recently introduced 360p
    you know, a really, really, TINY bit of common sense might help

  6. This is the old school Atom, there are much faster ones these days. The V* one has a couple of hundred more horse power and the Australian JayDee version has around 750 horse power (still only 520kg). These new models spank ALL production cars and bikes, and I mean spank.

  7. Mr Clarkson has once again failed to get the point,get the cbr and the atom on a real B road,not a race track like every one else does because thats not the point,And whilst your stuck behind mr and mrs jones discussing which garden centre to go to,i’m off having FUN,that’s the point.

  8. A 2012 BMW s1000rr does 0-62 in 2.04s, opposed to a 2012 Atom’s figure of 2.9

  9. Not as fast as the smallest cc class of sports bike, but the stig (a proven racing driver) lapped the track quicker than ? Riding the bike. It’s fast, very fast, and I love this car. But don’t manipulate a race to say that a bike is slower, it’s pathetic. Why not just be honest, it’s fast in its own right…but so is a (even a 600cc) bike.

  10. If you’re talking of a fair race then it should not be on a track designed purely for 4 wheels! On that basis I could ride a moped through London quiker than any supercar it does’nt mean the bike is faster.

  11. I don’t think I’ll ever have more fun on that than I will on a liter bike.

  12. This was the first episode of Top Gear.
    Great way to start watching the series.

  13. Then the relation of weight and horsepower is no longer the same. Or else, then you have to take a stronger Ariel Atom.
