Think i know what my next project will be

Is it just bike engines or will a proper engine fit?





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I can see your project diary in my head:
"Spent 23 1/2 hours today, squeezing a jag engine into a single seater. No room for a driver, but I've got the worlds biggest R/C racing car."
