This has been a lot of fun! My time has been very chopped up the last few days, and getting anything done is a miracle in itself.
I needed a small, quick project to keep me from going nuts around here, and this fit the bill. Yes, my lines are shaky, and its not my best build, but it runs like a rocket, and is fun as hell to drive. I can see so many more of these in the future! A Norton, Triumph,BMW All makes of the big bikes could be done. anyway, here are some pictures, hope you all like them.

Fun is what it's all about.

Who cares about the odd wobbly line when the thing looks as right as this?

Anyway, it won't be standing still for very long - and then you won't be able to see if the lines are straight or not.

And what a high-speed project! It'll keep that Shotgun on his toes, if nothing else :D

Well done Bob, I'm certainly in for a couple.

Wait do I smell a TT proxy.
Monty Python sponsored " Now for something entirely different " lol

I have to admit Chappy, That would be a blast! I know there are way to many proxy/ fun runs going on right now, but if things settle down a bit later in the year? I hope to make a video this afternoon, showing just how well these thing run. I was amazed!
It would be the cheapest possible racing vehicle so far that I know of, at least if using that chassis. You can get 30 cars for $30 dollars on e-bay. They seam to costing out at about a dollar a piece when I looked this AM.
And David, you are so right about the wobbly lines. Who cares when they are going around the track!
