 this is my current project based on the lil yeller bus also used parts from the barris t buggy and r/c cola wagon the bling bling rims are for my 12 year old but i am searching for something a little wilder. hope to post some other stuff soon but this is my first project since the storm and it is good to be building again |

Flame, I think metalburner's corvair power is gonna win out over your clothes pin power ;D. It will probably produce a much less "froggy" ride too ;D.  "Paulie" |

Yeah, but that clothespin would make one great E-brake, huh?

haha, actually I'm gonna replace that clothes pin with a VW Beetle engine, but I suspect I'd still lose against him at the drags ;D Mind you, my aerodynamics might be SLIGHTLY better - my screen has got less negative rake to it! Its gonna be a close one!  |

by the way MetalBurner - what's that Barris Bugy engine like? I'm sick to death of trying to fit this VW engine under the car already! ;D
I'd love a pic if you happen to have one
