TMI AutoTech Gazette

Greetings from the North American home of the Ariel Atom!
 
I may be a new face to some of you, but to other owners and racers of the Atom, I may know you well. For the last year and a half, as acting Motorsport Services Manager for TMI AutoTech, I have been a part of anything ranging from Atom part sales, managing track and race support for the Spec:RaceAtom series, and all Service inquires related to the brand. Needless to say, I am familiar with every nut and bolt on the car...

I have an extensive history with high performance vehicles ranging from tenures with BMW, Lamborghini, and now Ariel! The brand has taken a huge leap with its offerings for the high performance and exotic car market (e.g. introduction of the Atom 3S) and I was more than happy to step up and offer my support in the Vehicle Sales Department.

I would like to offer an open invitation to contact me with any questions regarding all things Ariel, whether it be questions about a replacement light bulb or how to get in the seat of our awesome vehicle lineup.

See you in the twisties.

We Took an Atom 3S for a Drive, A Long One...

 
In our last Newsletter we left you with the news that we were headed to Monterey Car Week. Well, we made it back and what an awesome experience it was! We took this as an opportunity to put as many miles on one of our new 3S's as we could (it's a tough job, but, someone has to do it...). To do this, we shipped our Demo unit (AVAILABLE HERE) to Sector 111 (our Dealer located in Southern California). Mark and I attended an evening "Meet and Greet" with several other West Coast Atom owners and our journey was slated to begin the next morning....
