This was a project I did with a couple of mates for the upcoming Silverline Power Tool Drag Race.

Rules are simple build something to carry someone down a drag strip powered only by a power tool. So of course we were down the pub doing some planning when somone mentioned leaf blower. Ooohh sounded tempting, apparently what you need is the biggest one you can get & their called Little Wonder.

So 2 weeks later 9hp of Wonder arrived, we spent the weekend building it into the fastest leaf blower in the country. We tuned the engine, added a rail chassis, fitted some steering, added some more thrust, a race seat, a race spoiler.

Ok it's not a Deloroean but they did'nt have a Leaf Blower section lol & that was the maddest thing on the list
