In Auzzy they have Bucket Racing and I found this link of a works bucket racer and how to build one. Here is the link.

A CB125 turned into that. Would any of that fit into our rules over here.

Can't see why not? As soon as I saw the name Ken Lindsay, I was interested, he's been building those things for years, doesnt say what wheels he uses though?
