Question New concept? Half car/cycle?

If anyone watches MTV, BET, MTV2 on the regular (I dont but this caught my eye) In the Jadakiss/ Bubba Sparxxx "Feels so good" video, there is a new half motorcycle/ half car in it. They show it quite a few times. It seems to be RWD with one cycle-style, chain-driven wheel in back and two car-like wheels in front for steering. The cockpit consists of one bucket seat enclosed in an odd, pod-like exterior. It looks kind of fugly at first, but it seems to be growing on me.

Does anyone have any idea what tpe of vehicle this is? Its an all new platform to me. Hybrids keep popping up.

Yup, it is a T-Rex and they are not new... they have been around for like at least 2 years now. Very cool little machines...

Yep T-Rex. They are available as a kit form or fully built. 0-60 in about 4 seconds I want one. Saw this about 2-3 years ago in a magazine.

Ummm, I dont like that... the "Real" T-Rex has a roll cage on it ~ I would bet it would be safer then your normal rice rocket... low center of gravity, light weight, awesome suspension setup and AWESOME power to weight ratio makes for an incredible driving experience...

For that kind of money you can be in a Factory Five car, which to me is MUCH better in every respect.
