      Gotta be honest, I'd rather have the R1 engine in the bike, I really miss mine

      I bet that needs some revs to get it launched, maybe it's been retuned to give more torque (I didn't read the full ad)

      Hell of a feat of engineering though

      Cheers,

          I'm sure you'd have to rev the balls off it, but that's the point with a bike engined car.

          The bike engined Westfields you see at the hillclimb events are ludicrously quick, and I just found a Megabusa on a kit cars for sale site for less than £10k - and Vicki just said I can have one - and all I need now is somewhere to put one!

            Nah, forget those weedy bike engined contraptions and build a testosterone fuelled version...

                      but lets face it, if it was a tad louder it would sound superb, thats why i love santa pod, enormous V8's with no pipes on em, music to my ears
