Blender.


That or i could mount it to the back of my skateboard.
Now THAT, would be some pretty apesh!t power to weight ratio.

Can you actually just buy it? On a serious note like, one of those in a Mazda MX5 would be great.
There's already people putting big heavy ford engines in them and they still keep handling with added preformance that'll beat a Ferarri in a hill clim. Those Ford V8 are only chucking out 350 ponnies, max.
Imagine one of those in it.



Edit: Is that yoke going in an Atom?:eek:

Yep this one 100BHP per ton

Ariel is targeting a sub-500kg kerb weight, which suggests a 1000-per-tonne output. We’re talking 0-60mph ‘in under 2.5 seconds and 0-100mph in less than 6.0sec’. You’d better hold on tight!

Ah i know, i was just messing.

I would love a shot in one of those.
I'd be so terrified.
