Glad you said car because nothing sounds meaner than a vintage hydroplane. V-12 Allisons running over max rpm plus a little nitrous dumping through open headers over water...

I think I require 2 emojis:🍬🚎

You really shouldn’t ride in shorts, so proper pants helps a lot.

I’m holding out for a Retro-Grom. Guess I’ll just soldier along with the Grom’s Grandparent for a while longer...

My grandfather lost all his teeth when he was a butcher.. Carving up a horse,me struck a nerve and it kicked the teeth out.

Somewhere around here I saw a Fiat X1/9 on a K5 Blazer or perhaps TJ chassis. I can’t remember which backroad I saw it on though.

Fun Fact: the Ford Explorer was roll prone due to the Twin Traction Beam from suspension. The TTB also was a handling nightmare if the bushing wore out (and a tire eater when worn).

I also imagine that the gear ratios would be mid matched with one in reverse and the other in a forward gear...

But it is 4 wheel steering, so it can probably crab around stuff at crazy angles.

Seems like the break over angle is going to be a problem... Unles it just breaks and articulates.

But wait, I have a weird bike and frankly, I think it’s illegal to ride an old school Honda AND be a dick. It goes against the whole ethos of Honda of the 60s and 70s.

That’s cute... Now try doing it in a 50cc “scooter” with a rifle scabbard and full size buck on the back rack...

Heck, out 79 GMC van has a super complex system using that same pedal, but when the load increases on the engine, the air door swings open, followed shortly thereafter by the secondaries, allowing for a significant boost in power.

The next time someone tells you that the GM 4.3L V6 is a piece of junk motor for people that didn’t want a real truck or a real V8 F-body, show them the ISRL Super Six wingless Sprint car.

The wheels even scream Grand Wagoneer. If only they had added a chrom roof rack. Now I want to se a Sienna done like up like this:

Wait, Revolution X?

To be fair, the 1933 offy was rated 250HP @ 6600 RPM. So even in the 30s, they were putting out respectable power (of course, it was 255 cubic inches, so about 4.2L for an I4)

Probably wil be a ton of articles becuase it was sucks a crazy one-off thing. Developed for one race only and basically banned after dominating. It's even more absurd that a Chapperal 2J fan car.

And there was the Allmandinger fire in Austrailia in 2006. It feels a bit more like the Talladega Nights fire.

Except it’s not stock. There is a secondary video where they explain its got a 383 in it now. I imagine it has a bit more go than a stock 305 would have.
