I would agree that this vehicle would be a silly nightmare, and completely useless for many chores; but hints of questionable HPV speed surprised me! Doesn't anyone keep up with human powered vehicle records?
The 3-wheel Vector held the record at 60+ mph since the early 1980s, and was shattered in the 2000s by a 2-wheeler: 81 mph and most recently at 82 mph.
But speed is not as important to most as legality, longevity, economy, fun. I do not know if anyone remembers the FKE go-carts in 1965- but this is almost an exact copy (only twice as large).
