PUSHING The Praga R1 at Atlanta AMP 

A mad ride in the Praga R1 at one of the most challenging twisters in the world - Atlanta Motorsports Park. If you get a chance to go there, take it.
Praga have a new foothold in America thanks to www.pragaracingusa.com and thanks to a kind gent called Jack Rambo (real name) I got the keys to his ride and pushed it hard enough to set a track (class) record. These cars are a riot to drive, especially when you can't see where you're going over the blind crests that track designer Hermann Tilke is famous for building into his circuits.
Hats off to Hermann but here's the funny thing - his best tracks aren't his Formula One circuits.. it's places like AMP and Bilsterberg. If you want to know whether you can drive or not, whether you can trust your precision and timing 100% then kneel beneath the Altar of Hermann and run one of his courses.
I'm a biased fan of Praga, they make belligerent cars that love being taken by the scruff of the neck and hurled through challenging curves. AMP has one of the longest, fastest corners I've ever driven that runs from top elevation all the way through to the pit straight. Only when everything is perfect can you take it flat out and produce the same 'holy s*** I can't believe I'm doing this' facial expression that I did
Giving it up to the geezers who kindly filmed us in action and do check out our other films in this mini series here:
