Schumacher is pleased to announce the all new Atom 2 GT12 Chassis Kit.

The ATOM 2 takes GT12 racing to the next level. The all new steel chassis makes for a fantastically low centre of gravity, excellent for maximum cornering speeds.

With a host of other refinements from the British Championship winning ATOM, the ATOM 2 is the 'go to' car for GT12 racing.
