It's one of those ideas that I can't believe nobody's already thought of. If I had a car, I'd buy one. ,maybe, 17 bux looks a little pricy for that tiny piece of Al.

another thing to try would be to make the bottom of the ski concave along it'slength like a snowboard, as the outside loads up it will dig in deeper and gain more traction, just like on a snowboard.

It'd never have the same power if it was gas. not as much energy in gas as hi-test nitro fuel. That project is pretty sweet. I'm kind of wondering if a fourstroke would be a better engine for bashing...

I don't think nitro fuel exhaust is hot enough to make a conventional O2 sensor work. maybe if it was REALLY high nitro content, like 70% or so.
