Does anyone remember a stunt bike toy that was similar to the Evel Knievel one? Instead of turning a handle to rev it up, you had a a pump-action device (a bit like a dynamite detonator) that you had to use. It must have been out around the same time as the Evel Knievel version 'cos my parents said they searched all over the place one Christmas to find one but they'd all sold out so they got me this other version.

I remember a similar toy only as the 'James Hunt' car.
As you say, this was propelled with compressed air via a pump.
Needless to say, Santa brought a James Bond car instead! -
I had that car one which was on a ramp with a pump and made some noise, i think it was maybe called Tycoon racer or something like thatOriginally posted by Joe1968Comment
