We know that this really isn't so much of a race as it is a clear show of superiority for the out-of-this world Ariel Atom V8, but it's still pretty cool to see how a car like the Wiesmann MF3 Roadster can hold up against the mighty Atom, even if it's relative to the number of car-lengths the latter can have over the former.

This video shows us exactly how powerful the Atom V8 really is. Make no mistake, the MF3 Roadster is far from a lightweight considering that it's powered by a 3.2.-liter inline six-cylinder engine that produces 343 horsepower and 269 lb/ft of torque. But when you put those numbers up against the Atom V8 and its 3.0-liter V8 engine that chalks up 500 horsepower, it's about as competitive as LeBron James participating in a dunk contest against Verne Troyer.

That's not to say that this video isn't entertaining. After all, it's always fun to see the Ariel Atom V8 lay the smack down on any car that tries to cross its path.
