I was going to weld up either a recumbent bike or more likely a recumbent trike. My friends are throwing a soapbox derby/party next month and I figured I could experiment with bamboo frames with that until I came up with a triangulated spaceframe I liked to use for the bike.

I hadn't picked up the craig vetter dvd mostly because I doubt that there is anything in it that isn't common sense to people who squeezing performance out of engines.

I picked up a lifan 125cc engine and I'm considering ditching the transmission portion for a couple cvts to get the range in ratios I'll want rather than having to throw in a jackshaft.

As far as my car goes, I was going to leave it as is since it is so rarely used that it is hard to justify doing anything other than maybe covering the front a little and putting an airdam all the way around
