Powered by air or water cooled?
these are made by the same mfg as the legends. I had a similarly built Baby Grand race car.
With the motorcycle engine they are fun as you just bang the shift lever, like a sequential gear box.
Don't spin out and go backwards as you will break the starter. Of course, there is no reverse- so get yourself pointed the right way. Power to weight is about 10 to one, so it gets moving pretty well. Oiling is a bit of a problem as a bike motor does not achieve G forces on the oil supply like these motors would in left/right turns. We have seen accusump set ups on a few of these types, but i think most add an additional cup to the bottom of the pan and make sure they are filled to level on oil. I have also seen where they add external cam oil lines to make sure the valve train stays well lubed.
Depending on price and condition, these make for good learning tools in DE. They are easy on brakes and tires and some good laps are to be had. Test fit yourself first as it can get cozy in there!
