Offroad: You must no be an engineer. That is totally COOL!

Now, why some psycho would take the time to do it ... I have no idea. But it is just so completely mind blowing awesome that it kills me.

Pure novelty is enough for me. I'd love to have one sitting on my desk.

NCbob I want one to.

Just teasing offroad. I'm sure you could put it on a go-cart or something but can you imagine the looks on people’s faces when you fire it up in your office? What a riot.

Yes, Monsour, I am a Chem E also and knew you were as well.

Most engineers think the mini engine is so cool it's ridiculous. Even without a use, all of the engineering and manufacturing to do it is ... well ... beautiful. Crazy (who is the wacko who did it), but beautiful. The damn thing has a blower. God is that cool.

Colorchange, have you seen the exact replica of a Ferrari racecar (I think it's 1/6 scale) with fully functional V12, transmission, pedal cluster, shifter and tach?! I need to find the video, but will post when it when I do, it's simply ridiculous.
