Don't know if anybody had an encounter with a three wheeler. I at least had not had one since I was 3 years old until I ran into one a while ago . I spotted it on a little morning cruise. It was a yellow T-REX. Once I finally caught up with it at a light, two guys were looking over with a big grin . I say: "Nice three wheeler you got there" Driver says:"Yeah, it's a Rex"
We cruise along side each other for a few blocks, sound of both vehicles resonating between the buildings and at the same time soliciting a few looks from people. So for fun we both step on it some more, switching to first and second spots Moments later we make a quick stop to chat. He tells me it's got a Kawasaki ZX-12 engine in it an that they're from a Daytona dealer. These things must be fast?? Before stopping I had chartered my girl-friend (uh-hum now ex) to jump out and take a picture....

 

Yes, they are almost motorcycle fast... 11's?
