We salute Tony's creativity here and we're sure his Rocket will be awesome. All the non bike parts from the Focus are easily sourced from a breakers yard so it make a lot of sense.
Bike engined cars are always slightly mad on the road with power only really being there in the upper echelons of the rev range but they are very rapid once they get going.
We had a GSXR 1000 engined Smart Roadster at one stage and even though it weighed 800kgs it was very quick once it got moving. The CBRocket will be just over half that weight and will have a much better weight distribution than the standard car so should be awesome.
Well done Tony.
