   despite the lack of wheel it is the same bike/trike, I assume that the three wheeled conversion is the later incarnation as it shows up in recent sprint results. I can't find any real info on it other than the site of the engineering company that seem to own it, looks like a full on fuel motor but sounds really "soft" in the video, might just be running it that way whilst testing of course. One to look out for. I quite like the other crazy guy and his machine, there have been several similar attempts over the years , they crop up occasionaly in older albums, none seem to stay around for long which probably tells you all you need to know about them.
