Highly modified wheelie bin - THE BINSLEIGH

[jonny-5 0]

This is my second project, it's a highly modified wheelie bin that we started to build when we were at school, it then steadily evolved to what you see today:

Spec:

Kids bike front wheels with bb's

Top speed is currently 29.8mph but we have a top secret 'nos' plan in the pipeline to push us over the 30 barrier.

 

check out the myspace too for videos and construction pics.

:lol: :lol:

 

I did A-level maths at college and i know that 9.81 has special relevance....is it the force of gravity in nm on the earth or somethin like that (Its been a few years since i left college and this will rack my brains) lol

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2 :wink:

We need some competition to race against. So we've been trying to spread the word some more - see if we can get some rival teams. My mates next door neighbour built a kart last summer though, it was basically two bikes cut and shut to make a kind of trike but it was no match for the mighty binsleigh.
