cool vid... I seen a couple like that, including a real sick 350 oddy wiht a 440 doing 85 mph on a street!!! That is what I always wanted in a buggy... Wheel poppin power, and all out drag racing fun!!!! As well as a little offroad capability!!! lol.. I think the oddys of the mid 80's were in a 500 range, werent they? With a 440 water cooled, full radiator, big tires, I bet that buggy is close to 550 or more without the driver... But a joyner... how heavy are those???

I am going to try and find a wrecked 440 snowmobile and get the engine and other parts I need. I have a very nice 600 but think that might be a little much after seeing the odessy with the 440. I just want to be able to go 55-65 mph and do it quickly if I want to. Twisted Evil

I have an Odyssey with a 540 Yamaha 2cyl 2 stroke. The thing goes from 0 to oh crap in no seconds. After I put it together I putted around for about a half hour stopped, pointed it straight up the road and tried to find out how fast it would take off. I drove out from underneath my hat! Every time you hit the throttle its like topping the hill on a roller coaster. Either way, the thing weighs about 380 lbs with fuel and no rider. That video made me build mine.

Good Luck with your project!
