Oh yeah, i have an even better one for what you`re on about,,, Just imagine (If you can) a go kart frame, (slightly lengthened) Then dump a turbo Busa engine into the back of it, now straddle the engine with a foot each side of the donk (basically just mount feet plates/pegs slightly above rear axle height) & then lay face down , head first... grab a set of handle bars mounted at the front of the frame for steering, clutch & front brakes (ala motorbike) with gears on the left foot & rear brakes on the right foot (ala motorbike) then you effectively have the worlds lowest & fastest quad-runner. Easy to handle really as you can manouver your body around to weight jack the thing for cornering & also when it comes time to gas it up, then you really do get a proper "wheel stand" ,,, in other words-> you really would actually be standing up 
& don`t worry, you heard it first here & it really is becoming a reallity, i kid you not!!! I`ve allready started it & will definately finish it (it`s just way tooo easy to build) BUT!!! I`m just not quite sure if i`m mad enough to actually pilot the thing (pilot being the approapriate word here) It might just end up as a display on the wall.
If you can imagine the very best power to weight ratio of just about any 4 wheeled vehicle on the planet & basically less frontal area than anything anywhere, i`d probly call it a bullet.(mainly cause you`d just have to die if you drove/flew it) others may call it other things more ressembling swear words tho, but that`s ok... describing it with swear words would only be compliments to my idea/workmanship
The GixxerKart has Nothin on this "Thing"
as unlikely as it may sound this concept was thought up about 20 + years ago by trevor langfield , of highpower nitrous sustems, when he was having a BIG clearout prior to supposedly moving the business i noticed a strange framed contraption in amoungst all the crap.it turned out to be a rear engined bike powered thing with the pilot laying head first encased in a rather feeble structure, in fact the two mambas i just flogged to Vegard where mounted on a narrow solid spool axel off the rear of it, it was going to be his demonstrator for his nitrous syatems, using old british bike engines,lol. carl |
