    Looks like that thing would be a blast in the dunes light weight, 2 stroke. The 2nd link said they could slide it sideways at 60mph looks deadly and cool! perfect!

    It looks pretty cool. I wonder how sturdy that frame really is? That's about 15 minutes away from me here. I don't know how that would be on woodsy trails though. Wouldprobably be a blast in the big sandbox though.

    Those tri-carts look pretty cool. Wonder if anyone on here has one. I'd think they would be extremely rare. No way I would jump one.

    I found alittle info on them and some videos from this link http://www.6x6world.com/forums/other...tricart-7.html I bet you could build something like this pretty easy,Snowmobile engine would be sweet! im not to crazy about the steering if i was going to build one it would be something you sit in and steer with a wheel prolly a roll cage well i guess that would just be a go cart then

    Yeah, that's my Tricart which is the subject of the linked 6x6world thread. I have 2 Tricarts and 1 each of sister models Tricub and Minicub. Sperry also built a 6x6 amphibious atv called the Wedge, which is how I initially discovered the 6x6 forum.

    Tricart factoids...
    - Built by SPD (splinter division of Sperry Rand) about 1970-73. SPD was a actually division of New Holland of farm machinery fame who was a division of Sperry.
    - 12 hp JLO L230 2-stroke engine or 8 hp Briggs
    - ~40 mph (JLO)
    - 16x14.50-6 rear meats
    - 1-piece fiberglass frame/body... very rigid and solid. I don't know what you's have to do to it to break it.

    Very rare and extremely cool looking! I read the article with the original inventor/builder and enjoyed it very much. Doesn't put Honda in a very good light though. The tires on the 6 x 6 look like the same balloons on the US90. Wonder if there are any 6 x 6 Tricats out there?

    The inventor of the ATC stated that's where he got the idea for the tires...
