Only in Norway - Turbo bike engined MK2 Escort

[Jay_harrier]

Anyone seen this before?, looks like a turbo'd blade engine

 

Shame they didn't paint the underside of the front chassis rails & the prop angles look wrong.... still quite cool though particularly the bits of a laptop they used for the dash

Apparently it's not a new car & I found the turbosport guys chatting about it when trying to find out more, the general opinion is just as you say "fun" but they'd all stick with a YB or similar.

 

Makes about 200 brake & as much torque as a B&Q leccy drill...

 

Spolier is all a bit rice rocket for my liking.

I've seen the vid before and yeas, I think its quite old now but I never new it was bike powered. Its nice to see something a bit different I think, good luck to 'em I say, as long as they drive it like that

It's a friend of mine, Morten, The engine was a turbo'd CBR 900... 250bhp and about 180lb ft i think.

The engine is now in a mini but it was a quick car purely because the engine and gearbox combo weighs less than a pinto spark plug!!!
