i found it hard enough lifting complete engine/gearboxs and they weigh the same.. that's rather impressive.. granted i don't think they weighed it correctly given there was (most of) a shell and an engine on the scales when they weighed it in...

I don't think that was a mini engine in it... didn't look like any steering etc. either - they only showed it going in a straight line.

probably just a lawnmower motor or something, just enough to make it move

but 160kg on your head, bloody hell!

The balance of the car would be different with its proper engine.
But it does not detract from his performance. :shock:
