    I'd say the disc brakes and steering and such. But it is awsome! Love those spun aluminum wheels. A company up in S.F. area makes them and boy are they expensive!

    Me too. And you could use some Flintstone power to get going on icy roads! Gary

    the total tire footprint on that thing (counting all four corners) doesn't even come close to the footprint of a single E70x14. But it's sure a cool looking ride.

    I was going to comment on 'that'd be traditional hi-tech then, would it', but that thing looks the****s.
    Cool.

    Concur, motorcycle tires on cars isn't a real red hot idea. But I love the idea of the thing, Gary

    i wonder where he was heading with the steering. the gap and the sprockets on the pitman shaft? sure would be a good time on a board track.
