Andy Saunders is a legend, He does do some crazy and sometimes questionable things but certainly resourceful anyway

Andy Saunders? Mental. The man is a tireless maker of... things... things... with wheels. If there's anyone who can do it and actually make it look decent, it's him.

Don't worry, just messing with you "Crossply" is a type of tyre. "Crossflow" is the engine it's using!

Looks pretty cool so far though.
