engine in it.

I'm a little sceptical of how good it would be to be honest.
A lot more weight than ur average BEC (space frame mini/kit car etc), with the little torque a BE provides, i think it may struggle to get much BHP
and/or ft/lb per tonne.
Apart from being a laugh in the wet it would be far from 'wow' quick.

Well its certain to be a hell of a lot faster than it was!

you'd be suprised how fast a standard vts is! Would have to be fairly tuned BE to make all that effort worth while.
I still wouldnt mind taking it for a spin mind you.

Totally agree, they aren't exactly the lightest cars in standard form (over 900kg) and that one doesn't look particularly stripped out. I
wouldn't be surprised it it was still well over 700kg with the bike engine fitted.
Anyone else notice the tumble drier vent pipes for the airbox feed?
