It's really interesting the lack of something better that some folks have! LOL While a cool project, really, what's the point? 8)

I didn't see all the video's but does it show how he connected the radial engine to the transmission? I love the sound it made when he went past the cars almost sounded like the old Porsche 917. Looks like outrageous fun also can't be easy on gas, probably drives from gas station to station. :lol:
