Red bull soap box

Featured Replies

Anyone heard of it? Got approached by a mate today asking if I wanna help him, can't see why not! Anyone else local to berkshire is welcome! Should be a good laugh, building a space frame front scratch is the plan for us I think, so yeah anyone entering?

Space-frame made from Red Bull cans...

Body made from Red Bull cans...

Do Red Bull actually make drinks any more or do they just sponsor stuff all day long?

Smooth look, wide wheels mega lows and sticker bomb it

I made a kart for this, was a euro-pallet with the plastic seat from the canteen on it, and four BMX wheels. Hook'n'rack steering made from unistrut and conduit with a Mountney steering wheel.

Was a bit heavy but i wasn't, it rolled great downhill with 70psi in the slick (but chunky) tyres.

Never made it to the event though, got scrapped with the red coupe, so that was '07.

Interesting! Cheers Mikey

defo space frame with a miniature replica of a mk1/2 polo on :D

or atleaset a vw badge somewhere

surley a steering wheel would be better for steering? like off a go cart toy?

Or use a golf caddy as a base and make a fat rat rod ;)

I've already registered for it ;)

Sly lawnmower engine bolted onto a pikey frame with 4 wheels attached

I've already registered for it ;)

There's a load of scaremongering going on about how it's meant to be really harmful and shit - bollocks, Gazza's been drinking 50 cans a day since it came out..

I don't drink the stuff, i only went with the theme for my Polo because the colour scheme worked.

does look a hoot.

someones already done a golf or polo going by the adverts.

id build one but it would have to be uber pikeytech through and through ;)

I'll bet the CEO is fucking minted.

Doubt it, he's probably spent all his money on sponsorship :lol:

Does anyone even drink it anymore? Relentless and monster seem to be more popular these days. I drink relentless because it tastes similar but you get 2-3 times as much :thumbsup:
