BuzyG said: TiggerS4 said: I'm just trying to imagine what the hell happens when you dare to open the throttle?? Must be like the world's ending!! 500bhp <500kg big fat rear tiers, short wheelbase, I can tell you exactly what happens. If you use two many revs it slews sideways instantly into the nearest solin object & you die. If you get it spot on and there is no wheel spin, then it flips over instanly and lands on top of you and you die. Have you spotted the common theme here. Totaly Bonkers, how can I afford one!! Tends to explain why they didn't open the throttle on the video.

Is there an option for a matching carbon fibre coffin to put the pieces in (at least the ones that they can find!)

For something not quite so bonkers and expensive what about my 3 wheeled CanAm Spyder?! This one is just a year old and it's for sale too...  Goes like stink, and gets more looks (probably people wondering - why?) than anything else I have driven.

Aren't quadbikes designed to corner by skidding on the dirt, for this reason they flip on tarmac (too much grip)? I wonder what the insurance is on that thing as a fatal accident is a certainty.

That is awesome someone on PH's should buy one.
And theres nothing wrong with Absinthe I had a particularly good night in an absinthe bar in Calais one year, well I think it was a good night and I think I won the fight I had with a donna keebab.

Yea good point, wouldn't an aero dynamics package also go down well (carbon spoiler, maybe a small diffuser), and maybe a small carbon cockpit/cover, as a token gesture of course. really anything thats gonna keep this thing stuck to the floor.
