It doesn't look like it will be very fast like that.

You would be surprised how fast Derno can pull a quad with the right motivation.

BEER...............We are going to hang a few from a string in front of him!!!

That may have been an understatement... You're the man to whip it into shape, though!

Some update info. For the motor we'll be using the same motor that was used in the 12hr quad. Starting to get all the parts we need that were missing or just plain shot. Soon it'll be assembly time. We'll be doing some parts swapping from the 6-12hr quad and the drag quad to get what we want on each. Steering stem on this one will be exchanged with the drag bike. Its got the good old twitchy FX which isn't going to cut it.The low handebars on this will also go on the drag bike.We're also swapping seats.Newer seat has more foam much better for long rides.Short seat will be better for the drag quad lower center of gravity.Maybe we should've swaped quads to start with.Oh well.Next week we start assembling starting out with the frame rail flush.Not knowing what happened to the motor(because there isn't one) a frame flush is a definate must. It would be sad to waste a perfectly good motor from a frame full of metal.
