Cool.....fueled by corn or beer?

 

[Hooch]

beer lol
it has a horrible gear ratio and is very very heavy
this year they tried to up shift the transmission to a better gear but it was too big of a jump
i bet they did 40 revs for every 10 feet lol

If the price of fuel goes much higher we might be seeing more of those things. :mrgreen:

i'd like to see what the leaders of the Tour de France could make that thing do

Only in Iowa...ha ha. :lol:

That's a pretty sizable differential for the amount of torque 6 people could produce. Shouldn't break anytime soon... :mrgreen:
