[00Bolt]

whats that 3 wheeled motorcycle thing like on bikerboyz, etc

[BC Lightning]

its a t-rex, those are also fun to drive but don't have the handling of the Aerial

They raced it against a 600cc bike, which isn't that fast, IMHO.

But the car looks very cool. I can't see driving it on the road at all, but it would be a great track car... easy to work on with no body panels to get in the way. All your maintenance could be done in the pits between sessions if need be.

Expensive. Yes. But it's cool and fast! I love the shots of the guy's face peeling back. Got a good kick out of that.
