That is bad ass. I would so drive that to work every day. Can you imagine a lightweight sports car with the efficiency of a bike? I know it's almost been done with the Ariel Atom, but to see others make something similar is really cool.

Is this through SAE's Formula contest? I thought that there was a restriction to only allow 600 cc's. Well, atleast that's all that was ever run at my school. Pretty cool seeing old carb'd 600's transformed with rapid prototyped plenums and custom fuel/spark maps.

You are correct, honda 929RR. The 954 replaced it, but the 929 is still one hell of a bike.

UNC-Charlotte has one I know, I've seen it out in the parking lots before.

And when you say your friend, you mean your friend plus 25 other engineering students.

When I said my friend I meant the project manager and the one who has done 90% of the work on it out of 4 people. He is the one keeping it. He worked to get $15000 in grants and put 3-4000 of his own $ in it. University of Cincinnati. Oh, he used the gauges off the bike too. Pretty cool looking.


I'll try to get some video of it.

Do you know how much it weighs? It looks pretty big.

Where is it running this weekend? At the Ford plant? I may shoot up there to watch - my car is illegal now (alky injection) so I can't run.
