what would you get?
would you choose a t-rex or Motorrad technik quad as a cool toy. Both pretty cool and around 50K.

i wonder how the t-rex really handles... seems like it should oversteer when pushed but i like to see some real handling tests and data from it...

just say no to the quad... cg way too high and you sit way to upright for a fast moving saddle type seat with no restraints... i've seen plenty of normal offroad quads that throw their riders already...

hmm.. going to ride/drive both. Saw a couple t-rex this weekend at Concorso of all places and was going to run to cartoys to go check one out tomorrow. I agree the motorrad is a pretty high center of gravity... btw sold the R6 and picking up a 06 CBR1000RR repsol edition next week.. that should be fun..
