everybody's tryin' to be my baby


Since I got my new ride!
The Corky J Racer
(CR1)

At Corky J's, we configure the CR1 with two Briggs&Stratton 3.5 HP's by modding a '76 German-made Buick Opel forced-air intake injection.
Next, we add an integrated pull-cord ignition,
rear-tire friction brake, and high speed bumper bolts.
In order to avoid licensing regs, we strip the spider gears for full clutchless manual operation in all environments. This actually resulted in performance improvements.
Check it out:
Before.
Lower gear ratio: 13 mph
High gear: 23 mph
After.
Lower gear ratio: 16 mph* (we now call it faster than a rat's ass)!
High gear: 28 mph* (space-shuttle wicked fast).

In late 2006, we'll be crafting a chrome-molybdenum crash cage, adding a CD player and an onboard E1 Palm Pilot navigation system (batteries not included).

Racing shoes, t-shirt and helmet extra.
Available in Small, Smaller and Pinhead.

*Results acheived on flat paved roadway or fine gravel on a slightly downhill oriented slope.
