i have spoken to the creater a few times but have no tech info,
so i have to conclude that as this was done at least 5 years ago its been a relative failure , or just to time consuming to get right,

I was going to say the twin bike-engined mini has been in MiniWorld. I'm pretty sure I have the article if anyone wants me to scan it in?

Holy Tits - V8 hyabusa is that? where did u find that - i must know more!
Regards the twin bike engine jobie i've seen two - or they may be the same one, just different colours. There was a bright yellow one in one of the ultimate mini DVD's and there was a red one featured in one of the minimags a few years ago. Both of these cars where R1's tho.
Try powertec, they build them for aroun £18K+ then there is the rebuild starting at 4 figures every30 hours of running!! Not really practical
Nice though, V8rearhigh.jpg 86.74K 32 downloads

To use two engines ( or more ) they must be mechanically connected, usually through the crankshaft, so one in the front and one in the back is not an option.

Correct, a vehicle which has two independant engines will not be allowed on the road ( under current legislation )

Yup, thats what stopped me having two engines in mine.
I know have my 1.3 in the front and the tank and battery in the front?
