Um yah, that its probably a formula sae car and the the engine is probably a 600cc motorcycle engine. Not very small really. The funky configuration is beacues you have to have a 20mm restrictor before the turbo.

Ya our Formula SAE team, which i am technically [art of but have been a bit busy to help out much, used to turbo the honda 600cc engines. N/A the car is really fast now 0-60 coming in around 4sec.

yeah, it's an FSAE car. i was on the university of minnesota FSAE team for 2 years. we had one in 99 that used a CBR250RR engine turbocharged and running on methanol, redlining at 19,000 rpm. fast little bitch
i've only driven the 98 car and the 01 car, and the 98 car was converted back to carbs (no bullshit restrictor). that was the most violent acceleration i've ever experienced in my life. from 9000-12,000 rpm i couldn't see it was pulling so hard. i think that car's 0-60 was a tick under 3 seconds.

speaking of SAE, the competition is this weekend in detroit. i know we've got a kickass car this year, but so do about 50 other schools. good luck to all you guys involved with you school's teams..

man, that scooter thing looks like a darwin award just WAITING to happen....

i think it'd be fun to take a shifter kart out to university and race a few 'maros. nothin warms my heart like making a mullet cry....

I like pizza

ok now I want to take a welding class and make a go kart and turbo it. I swear some point in my life I will make one. that would be soo fun just to say that I have a turbo go kart. with a giant fmic too. I know that they are trying to make a turbo for a gas rc car. but a go kart would be sooooo cool especially a shifter kart. you know? because you would hear the blow off... mmmmmm I am going to look around I know theres one out there.
