(Oh yeah, this ramp is not a problem at all.  Let’s do the slowrace!)
Just love this shot from Time magazine of the abandoned lunar scooter project.  Shouts to TheNewCafeRacerSociety again for the treasure trove of sweet, sweet oddities.  Click the title link for more info on what’s REALLY going on here.

    It would be interesting to get some real specs on that thing. I bet it would not be hard to reproduce today.

    At $38,000,000 I’ll bet that’s the most expensive scooter ever made.

    The $38M figure is for the lunar rover they opted for instead of the scooter. I bet the scooter prototype was only $5M or so. LOL
