Of course, I'd throw the stupid electric motor & batteries away and fit a
Hyabusa engine, but that's just me ...


Throw the entire thing away and buy something proper. I don't understand
designs for road cars that have a track significantly wider than the
body. It's just a waste of road space.

That looks like driving a plane that someone has pulled the wings off,
but driving it everywhere in reverse.
