this is simply crazy

For use in the Dolmette the engines were tuned and tweaked to deliver 5.2 kW of power (7.1 PS) at 10,000 rpm. Maximum torque delivery is 5.5 Nm at 7,750 rpm. When all 24 are combined, the result is a 24-cylinder power plant with a total displacement of 1.9 litres, a power output of 125 kW (170 PS) and 130 Nm of torque at the centrifugal clutches

the fact that 24 chainsaws outgun my civic in displacement and power just makes me feel insulted.

The drama and stress took their toll of DOLMETTE rider Andi Feldmann too. During test runs in Schleswig and on the Lausitz Eurospeedway, for which unfortunately only two days were available, it became clear that the torque delivery from the 24 engines, even in second gear, is just too much for the back wheel to handle. Consequently the bike suffers from massive wheel-spin. For this reason Andi Feldmann left the starting line in third gear, and with power output already down by four engines he simply couldn’t get the standing-start acceleration necessary.

chainsaw bike vs. audi

and i'm sure some rich bastard lost his life savings on a poor bet.
