Bike Power

[Guest ash]

with the new trend for bike engine powerd cars

has anyone built a megahood or a hoodbusa?

I'd have thought it would have less than scintillating performance because the Hood is so heavy. Its OK if you're building a LoCost.

 

What you need with these cars is plenty of torque.

Ash,

 

I agree fully with Jon...

I seriously considered a bike engined hood about 6 months ago after being offered a complete FireBlade package from my boss's Westfield (He has gone to a Hayabusa engine with nitrous - 250 BHP with approx. 480Kg)

When I found out the weight of the 2b minus the QE2-anchor (Pinto), I decided not to bother and let it go.
