Re: Speed's Just a Question of Money



I remember seeing a picture of this in one of last year's British magazines. It
was a photo with a small paragraph beneath it in the What;'s New section. I
remember cracking up at the paragraph. It went something like "This hurtfully
hilarious piece of s**t ....". I guess those Brit SportBike maniacs only like
theirs with pistons :-)

..How fast do you want to go!!
Check out this baby...Gas-turbine Superbike!!! This makes the Hyabusa look like
a little kid's tricycle.

0 to 200 mph in 5 seconds
1/4 mile in under 7 seconds
top speed:  266 mph
Those figures are based on a dyno run.....hmmmmm.  Can current tire technology
really handle this?
for $ 1/4 million, you can have your own!!!
