    Very cool build. I did look the goods smok'n that tyre down the runway as well.

    Like the pushbike hey Funky! I believe that's about as close to a bike ride you get at the moment.How is that bike of yours coming along.

    but...does it handle better? whats the wheel base now compared to the Bus...(coz surely yooz measured it).

    Pete was sayin that the "T" is actually short for "Thomas the FUCKING TANK ENGINE powered GSXR750 fighter".But he couldn't fit all that on the tank or tail...unlike some.

    I don't need to say anything, you already know what i think.

    There are a few more photos on the AFR write up for anyone interested: http://www.streetfighters.com.au/ASF_fools-2008.asp - and there's also a bit of it smoking up the track in the video.





    etc, etc, keep looking......
