mattwho said: i know it looks poo in this vid You're not kidding!! LOL!! Bet it's not slow though! It never occured to me that the engine was in the front, shame. I think the engine position is more critical to a 6R4 rep than the AWD. I take it your mate has a set of moulds. It's a shame the V64V layout with it's 'through-the-sump' driveshaft is so bespoke, it doesn't lend itself easily to replication! I still think two bike engines in the back, one feeding power forwards to a front diff would be good!
