    I first heard of this motor used in some of these cars:

    Pretty cool stuff on there.

    Well I just blew a lot of time. :D

    That's really neat stuff. Those cars look like they would be a blast.

    That 4 cylinder Z50 is a dog. Now a proper 125cc single cylinder Z50 can be a rocket. Nothing says fun like 16hp + at the rear wheel when your bike weighs 130lbs wet, has 10" wheels and a tiny wheelbase...

    An engineer does not see a glass half full or empty, just a glass twice as big as it needs to be.

    :D

    I think the designer may be going forward with this to see what can be learned. If it works, great.

    You obviously haven't read your latest issue of RRW. He's from New Zealand.;)
