Last summer we saw a Spyder, looked lowered and appeared to have a stretched swing arm. Was running a jackshaft and huge rear wheel / tire. Rear tire was well worn.

Looks like the same machine. Our photos were taken in South Florida, Hutchinson Island / Fort Peirce Inlet area.

There are/were a few turbo charged ones on here, one did some time on Bonneville Salt...He's on engine 3 or 4. Nobody's done a time run on Pikes peak yet that I have heard of.

Which class would a Spyder un in at the strip? The 1/2 ton 100 hp class? I don't think the Spyder has a lot of potential even if it is blown. If fast is the objective, buy something with a much better power to weight ratio as a starting point. I guess you could race a Spyder running ET class... then it wouildn't matter how slow the thing was; only that it was consistent.

Docdoru...:thumbup:
The difficulty in turning the Spyder into a quarter-mile weapon: it's basic configuration does not lend itself to the proper transfer of weight rearward, upon launch... :shocked:
