I would still like to see how those V8 bikes would do at the Duryea Hillclimb:

You would have to keep Your speed down on the lower half of the course, but You would brobably cross the finish line at a buck and a half.

Really fast cars like these: http://pahillclimb.net/about/the-courses/duryea-pagoda/  run this 2.3 miles in under 2 minutes.

These would be 2 minutes of Your life You would not forget.

I saw my first V8 bike about 1979 at Frontier Days in Cheyenne Wyoming. I was so shocked, I think I stood there for 20 minutes just staring at that thing.   I do like the looks of the trikes I saw on the other web site.

This is the one of the Trikes I was on in the Video. It is 750 HP with a 300 shot of Nitrous. It has a Trans brake and we launch it at 5000 RPM

That is a sharp looking machine.

When You pour it on at highway speed, does it lift the front wheel, or spin the rear ones?

Have You scared Yourself on it yet?

As the Video shows, The rear wheels will Light Up. You can't get enough traction to lift the front wheel. I guess you could with slicks on it. But not with ME riding it. I think the Whole Trike would come off the ground and go airborne !

Nice Paint.  Too bad there isn't another solution for the radiator placement.
