Yes, you read that right; these little beasties
are street legal. They run on either Kawasaki or Honda motorcycle
engines and co-opt vintage bumper car bodies into the most awesome
form of mini-car we've seen in too long.
There are seven of these little monsters floating
around California , and they're all the creation of one man, Tom
Wright, a builder in the outskirts of San Diego who figured the
leftovers of the Long Beach Pike amusement park needed a more
dignified end than the trash heap. They were originally powered by
two cylinder Harley Davidson Motorcycle engines but they rattled
like heck because of the two cylinder vibration and Tom replaces
them with four cylinder Honda or Kawasaki 750's and a couple have
been measured as capable of 160 MPH, which is terrifyingly fast in
machines with such a short wheelbase. By the way, they are almost
indestructible in accidents!
