andecorp Report post Posted November 25, 2015 Gravity/Soap Box/Billycart Racer. Made by Lamborghini for the Gravity Races to compete against Lotus, Bentley, Maclaren, etc. (Google it - it's a big deal sport! I had no idea.) Current winner is Lotus who's racer is capable of 200mph on a 45degree slope This one was commissioned by LOC to compete in the American Championships. Full carbon fibre, 4 wheel disc brakes, best lightweight components, etc. I bought it from Kentucky. It took me 4 months to get it here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andecorp Report post Posted November 25, 2015 Lots of cool details. The driver's head opening is in the shape of the Lamborghini badge shield. It also has momo harnesses and alcantara trimmed seat. It has underbody aero too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

emanon Report post Posted November 25, 2015 Awesome! Have you driven it yet? If you want to start tweaking on things you might look at getting some hydraulic calipers on the brakes and smaller rotors (help acceleration). They have road bike specific stuff now that wasn't available when those were built. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HannibalACP82 Report post Posted November 25, 2015 First that is cool as heck! What an awesome addition to the garage. As for doing 200MPH in that thing....I wouldn't even want to do 200KPH in it. Are we SURE it did 200MPH? That seems fast even if it was dropped out of the back of a plane. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andecorp Report post Posted November 26, 2015 Mine has 1999 stamps on the harness. So it's 15yo technology. This is the Lotus racer capable of 200mph: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andecorp Report post Posted November 26, 2015 It certainly is a coffin. Someone else has to strap the harness on and you can't undo it yourself. Then the body gets lowered and gets locked in place. Again, you can't undo it yourself. Then the helmet gets put on. You cannot reach it yourself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambo91 Report post Posted November 26, 2015 i was curious to know what this is about and found this the world record was 85mph top speed.. nothing close to 200mph..but still pretty crazy for something that looks like that..takes balls to be in it.
