Peter:
There's a company in Cadda-Waddoe somewheres called "Maxton" that makes a car
called the "Roller Skate" (or at least they used to!) which uses a Yamaha
motorcycle engine. It's an open roadster, tube framed, verrrrrrry lightweight.
The car looks vaguely like a Lotus 11 from days of yore. Then, don't fergit the
"Legends" race cars, which use the same kind of engine.
Key here is that BOTH of these "cars" are LIGHT, to the point of being not even
"real cars"... Perhaps the M/C engine isn't up to the task of dragging around
an entire car, even one as light as the Metro or the Sprint or whatever.
Could be a "fun" project, however. U upto sumpin?
