Slave if only you'd gone with that pulse jet trolley idea, now that would have been cool to test the lights with Im still up for sharing the costs of building one, so long as I get to have a drive.

I finally know who slave is, yes if you remember i used to race J/D's and i used to allways qualify with a good r/t time, they only prob with getting a scooter, it costs a bit to get the scooter its self, then u gota import the parts (exhaust, pod filter etc) from USA which is what i did, in the holidays im building a little whellie bar out the back but i dunno where im gona test it unless i really annoy the nabours. Ive had it for around a year, with the mods about a month, so that was my first full speed trial, but i wanna go faster now, thats the only problem, but im gona start running it on avegas now, a bit more cleaner burning than 91 lol. cheers holden_fan

he had the gocart / trolley on there maybe 6 months ago, i was keen till the bidding went over 5 hundie, ended up finishing at $700. only had a little friction lever on the wheels for brakes, the wheels were supermarket trolley jobbies and it could do 100 km/h, and could be heard from about 3 km's away.
hes the same guy who built a cruise missle in his back yard and he had some cool video footage on his trademe site of the trolley in action.
would have been fun for a couple of people at $250 each, but $700 was abit rich for some laughs.
but doing demo passes at lunch would have been fun
