after the first one was crashed into a house, renewed excitement has prompted me to build a new one. stonger, faster, with non-inverted steering this time!, we have the technology.
if anyone has bits they wish to donate to this project please let me know. I am getting the frame metal delivered tonight.
Im after pretty much everything else but it has to be dual purpose.
1) engine powered for huning around my suburbs and the park etc.
2) gravity powered for the next Red Bull Grand Prix Challenge
also if I get enough interest it will be KB branded (as long as spankme doesnt think its too crap then Ill get my company to sponsor me)
So I need wheels, axles, steering system and an old car seat.
my last one ran on hand-truck wheels and the steering ran on a bolt and nut hinge and was generally crappy (not to mention inverted)
I intend to run with something like quad-bike wheels if I can find some cheap'ys and maybe a mini engine/steering. well that would be ideal but chances are thats going to be out of my budget.
