Hi Dudes!: Talkin' about fast bikes... Does anybody know Ted McIntyre?... I'm reading a magazine from spain named "CAFE RACER", there is a note about this guy, exactly, about his bike... It's a bike built by Christian Travert (This guy made some works for MH Billet Custom Design), and the power source is a turbine. The turbine (from a Helicopter) is a Allison 250 C18. All the system generate 317 bHp, 59 mKg, 54000 rpm (¡!), with a virtual max. speed of 420 Km/h.... the times?... 200mph@5.4 seg. If somebody knows something else about this, or wants some scanned pics from this magazine, please let me know!... Well, I think that's all... Regards... Diego GPz 750 turbo '84 ZX-11 '92 not turbocharged...yet... > -----Original Message----- > From: NOVA Digital Services [SMTP:Info@NOVADS.com] > Sent: Monday, October 25, 1999 6:35 PM > To: Rick; >Turbo list > Subject: RE: [turbobike] Fastest Bike on the Planet? > > Congrats on the record.
