 noooo:  think of your reputation Meister.  Do you really want to be seen as a follower of the Ancient Order of the Bucket?

Take a barbie toy car and slap an engine on it...

http://youtu.be/HHnAjCb3Qfc

While some will say that 70+ mph isn't all that fast, given the size of the thing and how close your arse would be to the ground would you really want to be going any faster?

On the other hand could this be the new Moanimobile?  rubschin:
