Something not unlike this pair of cars, which are rear wheel drive but with a single car engine. Mine will have a pair of Suzuki TL 1000 v twins in the back.

Insane! I would have thought it was a bit of a heavy lump though? Can you really put that much power through those tiny rear wheels?

Ohhh yes, surprising but no problem, wheelspin cuts into the dirt and actually seems to find more grip.

It's sister car has a supercharger on it as well!!

watched em race at our local club, VERY fast cars!!
