Literally threw this bike together 3 days before the race with scrap parts and robbing other bikes. Managed to get it fired up the night before the race and tuned at the track. By the time of the finals all the lil bugs were worked out, but 6 laps in I ran out of gas...



Raced this in Portland, honestly was not fair against the other mopeds.

With Pintos, running out of gas is a way of life.

running out of gas? What a knucklehead.
