Radio controlled Monster truck with two speed gearbox, does over 100k's an hour. Although it's a bit hard to conrol at high speeds as the tyres belly out like drag tyres and it wobbles all over the shop....I know it's not a bike but it's addictive and a bit of fun...

Probably should have gone in Random Nonsense now that I think of it, but I'll let the guys with the sticks decide that.....

Bought it out of the box in kit form, but, I've put new race motor in, hard anodised chassis, 6061 billet hubs and a few other bits and pieces, I think this thing has cost me more than my bike so far! I'll put a video up on the random page when I can, these things are fucken quick...have a look at some of the shit they do on youtube if you get a chance.

Watto, mine is 4wd so won't wheelie but will spin all 4 wheels quite easy! I'm running 25% nitro...I think a mini drag race is in order!!

yeah mate mine was 4wd until an impact with a tree converted it to 2wd temporarily :D - mental note got to remember to steer the opposite way when it's on the way back to me ;)
