Spotted a...umm..."thing" on Kwinana fwy southbound bout 5ish that looked like a back to front trike that was all enclosed like a little race pod. It had a web address on the side of www.tilters.org

I have seen this thing (or one like it) before, but it was about 7-8 years ago.

EDIT: the url doesnt work [/b]

Was it this: Naro Tilting car

Nah this thing was a homemade/kit job. The seating position of the driver/rider (whatever he is) was semi reclining. The 'fuselage' I think is the most appropriate word, was sort of teardrop shaped.

One wheel at the back and two at the front.

EDIT: It was pretty similar to this one, just looked a little more home-made:

I remembered seeing a "tilting bike" on Top Gear so i've trawled their episode list and found the Carver Tilting Bike which is really cool
