Was at a localish cruise night in NY the other night and just stumbled upon this

For those that watch BBC top gear, already know what it is. (btw hope everyone else is happy HD BBC is finally out on FIOS)

For those who don't this is an aerial atom. From what I rembmer it should be a 1.8l supercharged motor. But I didn't get to thoroughly look over this since we were on our way to get food, and during that it left......

Neither did I till I saw the registration slapped on it. I checked out the website but wasn't looking for that

Absolutely sick though. A little bigger then I thought

Wow! Those things really are awesome. I wonder if those R888s are enough for it?
Brian posted a video of one not too long ago. http://www.njfboa.org/forums/showthread.php?t=56745
