Wow, I think I'd vote the following as less likely to slam you into a wall than the Hoss Fly:

I am not so sure it is 1350 worth of parts but he certainly has alot of profit in there. I would never buy one but build one could be a different story.

They have a showroom of racers! Recession might bite this business.

agreed, exaggeration for effect :)
if you've got a used engine in the corner of the garage, some square tubing, and a month of cold winter to kill, why not have some fun with a welder...
but to buy that, ?? more than I can justify for sure.
I've seen the ones based on the kiddy wagon in person, serious fun, but even they are 4-grand-ish in price.

And the wife thought the Golf cart that I put the 750 Honda "4" in was unsafe. Some said that after a 70 MPH ride it was like sitting on the top of a step ladder @
100 MPH, few went for the 2nd ride.

You are a sick, sick man Gary! I'm surprised you were able to find "volunteers" for a 1st ride!! :d
