I wasn't sure how the engines would be connected together, and was interested in that part. I'm also curious about how well all wheel drive works in these. I've always been interested in unique designs. However for my first build, i'm going with a book chassis and Bike engine. KISS.

The Tiger is setup with front and rear wheel drive. The one in the video seems to be sending both to the rear axle, and I was curious about how it all comes together. I just can't see much from the video. after looking at the t100, the engines are setup the same.. my bad.

Does anybody know where I can find more info on this car? I would have pushed the video, but I'm not sure now yet.

I've seen a few seven before, but really just related it to the MG class. I'm from the musclecar side of the tracks. My last project was a 6-speed twin turbo 360 69 Barracuda. My wifes daily driver is a 73 Challenger with a 340. I also have a Hayabusa when I need a speed fix. I also spent alot of time growing up in germany, and got my drivers license on the Autobahn. Speed has always been an addiction. I love almost any racing, but despise the redneck mentality, which means no NASCAR or roundy-round's for me. I have two boys, 18 months, and 10 years. When looking for a good project car for the older one(I figure if he builds one, he'll have alot more respect then just buying a $1000 beater for a first car), we stumbled upon a Doonkervort on Google images, and fell in love. I know those Doonkervorts are a love it or hate it LSIS, and I absolutely love it. However, we are getting ready to start a scratch build. Just not sure if we are going book, or 442. Problem is I'm 6'-5" 160lbs, and at 10 he's already taller then mom, so he's going to be tall too, and huskier, so it seems the 442 is winning out. Pretty much settled on the R1 motor, and elec reverse. I work as a mechanical engineer / assistant. So, on top of having all sorts of cool tools in the garage, I get even more at work if necessary.. Vacuum form, cnc mill, sheet metal brake, sm sheer, etc.

I really don't put it in the same group as NOPI tunervision/street tuner etc. Trucks is about useless, Horsepower tv is all about bolt ons. Musclecar is pretty good, but half of that show is always paint and body which while important, not something I want to see everyday. Extreme 4X4 always has a lot of important tech info, going into formulas, and how to and why's. The amount of tube chassis they deal with, really make it a must watch.

I've got to say, the best fabrication show going right now, is Extreme 4X4 on spikeTV. Sure, it's based on giant tires, and slinging mud, but if you look past that, there is so much more. They build tube frame chassis almost every show, cover drive shaft angle's, welding tech, tools. If there is one show on tv that would make your build come out better, this is my vote.
