Didn't care for the soundtrack. Is Andy up for a motor swap?? _________________________ 10101311 (20GB- backup empeg) 10101466 (2x60GB, Eutronix/GreenLights Blue) (Stolen!)

That's the first time I've seen one in action, but I've read about a hayabusa engined one, although that one was still a two seater which retained the instrument pod and the original shifter. The guy in that video appeared to using two sticks, I wonder wether one of them's a clutch control? Hardly a daily driver, I doubt you could drive it in a straight line on full throttle without spinning out. _________________________ Cheers, Andy M

The one good thing about the recent cold snap is that it's getting easier to get a bit of sideways action (for all of 2 seconds).. I considered buying a little gizmo that allows you to switch the traction control in and out. Combine that with an evil twin remap it could really be fun. _________________________ Cheers, Andy M
