haha. A scooter with nitrous. That would be fun. Not real practical in the winter, however.

I've really wanted to build a tadple for a long time. I think this may be my opportunity. At first I thought about using Goldies drivetrain, but I want to do it right (by my standards) and use a 1.0 L Metro drivetrain.
I'm thinking I'll part out the Accord to fund it. Or at least get it started...
I think I've even got my wife convinced that building one is a good thing. As the married fellas know, that's a big percentage of the project right there.
