P eople have been putting motorcycle engines in those hondas for a while. It’s really cool.

They also end up in minis, seen them in a lotus, etc. I've even seen one in a cappuccino. S mall cars with bike engines are awesome.

Hayabusa powered Metros/Swifts are a thing. There’s multiple ones running around out there.

Great video.  Love this build.  I thought I saw something about you making this thing a hybrid?

Yeah, Stef did a write up on it: https://www.google.com/amp/s/jalopnik.com/a-former-nascar-and-tesla-engineer-built-his-own-hybrid-1833149042/amp

It was too much weight for not  enough gain so I took it out.

Ah yeah that’s where I saw it. Cool idea for sure and  it won’t be long before technology allows hybrid systems to be more efficient with regards to weight and power.  I’ll be following your build!
