Being a guy who's made a lot of trips down the dragstrip on a motorcycle, I couldn't help but like this image!

Hope the rest of you do as well!

I wonder if there's engines on the other side too. It's pretty slick, but I wouldn't want to start it up :D

So what kinda motors are those? Looks like a whole bunch of small ones, but I'm sure I got that wrong.

Well if there wasn't more engines on the other side, it would be a handful to balance! If you look close, you can catch a glimpse of some red right behind the front tire, the lower front engine on the opposite side. That would make TWENTY-FOUR of them!!!!

I kinda got the impression they are Honda's. No reason why, just did.

Now remember fellas, all I have is the picture, same as you, but I'm sure willing to make guesses.

The one thing I see for sure here, another idea for Eldon to expand on!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

Nice Pic !

Dale, I think I'll pass on the multi-engine project, especially if they're Hondas (yuk!).

Maybe a row of K-341 16HP Kohlers, though...

Nah, maybe an aluminum block Buick V-6 or V-8 on an altered wheelbase WH. Gonna need another custom hood....

Now where's that pulling rule book ??

I noticed that right off! And wondered what type of clutch/coupling mechanism was used to allow each to start individually. Or maybe they all start at once, and the ropes are just for show now.

Okay I'll be the nay sayer here....I'm gonna lean towards a "photo shop" custom pic?

Maybe not ...it's possible somebody really wanted this.

Dale was there any info on the bike at all with the pic?

I've seen it run on YouTube. If I recall, they pull-started every one of them...
