V-Twin Powered Car


If you've noticed which vehicles are creating a buzz in the aftermarket, you may have seen a proliferation of rocket-powered space-frame road cars that owe a fair amount of their design to unskinned Formula 1 racers.
That's probably because Formula racers get paid to know what works, and it would be great if someone could figure out how to get those cars on the street. Well, TwinTech has, only with a V-twin twist


The whole article is at Kit Car Magazine's website. The website listed for Twintech doesn't seem to work. It takes you to what is apparently a poorly designed Norwegian IT resources company.

As for the car it's an interesting design but being a sport bike fan I'm more partial to the Suzuki GSX-R Concept Car.

Andrea, what's not to get? It's a sporty little car powered by a Harley Davidson engine. It's a guy thing I guess.

Bryce, that's an awesome car. I'd love to take it for a spin myself.
