I could just see this idea forming after a few drinks.

STi-ATV

It's only a step at a time, and each one gets bigger. Kinda like the jet powered beer cooler.

They took a Subaru STI engine and managed to attach it an ATV.

There's not much info there, but still an inventive way to bring harm to yourself.

I'll have THAT THING RULES NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY!!! for $100, Alex.
 
Is that a toy? :dunce:, I asked myself for a sec.
I would love to have one :D
 
Holy ****balls! I want one!
 
It was on display at a car show somewhere in New Zealand recently, can't remember where.

With that power-to-eight ratio :eek:
 
With that weight distribution :yuck:

But I would still love to have one. They did a decent job making it look the part.
 
OMG that thing is sick,..!!!!
 
I can already imagine someone winning a Darwin Award with the assistance of this machine! :lol:
 
I bet it flies! :eek:

I want one.
 
I was just thinking that. I shudder to think what the corner weights must look like. Can you say "brakie"?

I don't know about "expensive", but here's a great way to injure yourself...
Scary fast scooter.
 
I'd love to thrash that thing around brands hatch and probably kill myself in the process.
 
I'll have one of each. Cept I wouldn't dare push the ATV without a rollcage!!!!!

And that scooter must have some real long gearing.
 
I wanna take that scooter on the Nurb, and possibly get a sub 9 minute time!

Hope you make it over all the bumps and dips alive :scared: .

Um, you mean minute?

And I wonder what the quarter mile times on that baby is!
 
I haven't bought a toy like that since my motorized skateboard. You can really klonk your head on that thing. Lesson learned.

The 23,000 rpm redline doesn't hurt, either.

That WS6 is probably a high-12s car, if I had to guess.
 
does anyone have a downloadable of the goped video? i hate streams, and streams hate 56k.
 
Woah... driving a STi myself, I have to say that this is indeed the ultimate suicide machine.... but looks great...
 
What i'd like to know, is how do you keep the 500+ degree engine heat out of your face.....I guess you don't...I'll take 7!
