Quite cool but at the same time, we were having a conversation with my physics teacher a few years ago about hover cars and bikes and that is as small as they are possible to get so no real hover bikes for us like there are in cartoons.

Well, not using air pressure propulsion.

Quite cool, however, I'm hugely puzzled why they're using a two litre two-stroke engine for it. Surely there are more efficient, lighter, more reliable ways of making 200 horses? A turbo'd 'busa lump, a fettled B16A or an off-the-shelf Renesis for example.

I suppose in the US of A there ain't no substitute for cubes...

Rubbish.
