Having come from cars, I can tell you this thing has a serious shot at making a major dent in the track day world.

It should handle a lot like a car (Radical for example is also bike-derived), but the single rear wheel should keep costs down by bypassing crash safety requirements.

Plus, for a gonzo track day car, it's super cheap. The real question is... how fast does it negotiate the twisties?

On that note... a 2.3 liter engine producing only 160lfbt and 170hp in a 1700lb? Keeping the rear wheel camber locked to the chassis instead of the ground?

Lot of odd choices in this one...
