...there's a couple of guys in the local buggy club who would be sniffing around that. They currently run ex-ZX9/R1/CBR929 motors in their buggies, I'm pretty sure someone has got a ZX-10-powered buggy in development, so I'm pretty sure a ZX-14 donk would go down a treat.

...however, seeing I do St Johns first-aiding at their events, and I've seen what a R1-powered buggy will do, I might not tell them this one's on offer

. It does look a hoot, but I reckon they are nuts...even with the 4-point harness, safety chains on the wrists, neck brace and roll cage.

If anyone's interested (and you have a spare engine lying around), the classes they race (and they are about to be registered as separate classes in CAMS) are on here: http://www.torc.com.au/

I believe there's a few like-minded clubs around and as I said, it looks a hoot

.

BTW, they used to race Trikes and Quads, but they had too many accidents.
