The cars and bikes thread!

Now for something a little different. My son has a box car race at school on Friday. He wanted a Luigi Mario Kart looking one. Took a couple of days and several cans of paint.

Need to add the car # and carry straps. They wear them and run around Fred Flinstone style.

That is superb, lucky little guy!

Excellent - and the steering wheel could be used as a road wheel if he gets a blowout.

That's great!

Thanks gents. It was a fun, albeit frustrating project.

Plus, it only has like one-third of a horsepower. But it looks great. Who cares if it’s all show and no go? It worked for the Plymouth Prowler!

And here it is in action

Final corner and he lets My Little Pony come up the inside...

And the real ones

I came across this looking for something else entirely. I seem to be more receptive to electric motorcycles than cars. I still don't see the current 200 mile standard or even 300 being enough for me to consider an electric car a real car. Now if I could recharge it in 15 minutes then I could live with 200-300 miles of range(not 2-4 hour charge times). On a bike about 100-130 range is normal. I really don't understand the weigh comment since it seems to be nearly identical to most current liter bikes (Yamaha z1 is 487 lbs wet weight). I just don't know about 140/lbs of torque instantaneously on a bike.

If this opens up to an opportunity I might be able to snag a z06 at a decent price to replace the F-Type. The vet coupe is far more usable day to day than the Jaguar.

Here is one in nearly the same color pallet as the F-type. I think I may still prefer the yellow or white.
