I've always had a vision of a "large" go-kart with a powerful motor in it...of course, I was always envisioning automotive engines...that "toy" featured on that episode of "ToyMakerz" would be the epitome of my dream toy. It would be incredibly expensive, though...but WHAT A TOY !!!!!

Thanks Dugly
You are spot on with the dream mate, 200 ponies in a 450kg car reving up to 14 000 rpm , just simply is Nappy type of stuff.
To be honest, im mainly doing this for myself, simply to prove it can be done, secondly so any other like minded people who have a loose grip on reality can enjoy one too.


On another note,
Seats are nearly mounted, radiator is in, Body is nearly mounted up.
Have to change the steering rack over to a box now as the rack didn't have enough turning circle...aggh! more modifying.....

Take care all
