    50cc-125cc, 185-250cc 4 stroke, 350cc 4 stroke and 250cc 2stroke, and your 500cc class.


    4 classes that should be evenly matched. for 200 machines at the drags around here it takes 4 hours if they are lined up and ready to go as people are comming off the line. Start them early and they shouldnt interfeer with anything.

    What about the top class being reserved for guys like you with hybrid trikes and custom motor swaps?
    500's, Z's with Giant air cooled engines, CR type coversions

    Seems like putting you guys together would be the fairest for the rest of the guys.

    TF07 drags

    Here is my .02 as well

    I would have 3 classes: Open/Production Modified/4-stroke/TOP Eliminator

    Production Modified: Any trike that was made with the exception of the Tiger 500 can enter. The trike must have the original cases that came on the trike, but can have any modification possible such as.... big bore kit, stroker, aftermarket or dirtbike cylinder, extended swingarm....
    NO Nitrous

    4-Stroke Any trike that is a 4-stroke. Maybe no dirtbike/streetbike/atv engines.

    Open Class Any things goes as long as its a trike.

    Top Eliminator Fastest Trike in each class go head to head

    Only one class per/trike, no multiple classes with the same trike. I think the production class is the way to go, if you put cc limits on a class, people will cheat and if they are not cheating they may still be accussed of cheating. I dont think there should be any stock classes, who cares if you have the fastest stock machine, and you can still race...you just have no chance of winning

    Pretty much you can place the trikes in there class by simply looking at them..
    Example:
    Billy(not his real name) has a Cr500 engine in his Honda trike. You could take one look at it and determine it is not a 4-stroke... hmm not the original 250r cases....well there you have it.... OPEN CLASS

    This is just my 2 cents worth....what do you guys think

    My two cents:


    A drag race should be a drag race, with the fastest person being the winner. Not the fastest but, or fastest except, fastest period. Don't bring a knife to gunfight and don't bring a 110 to race against a 500. If your serious, bring it. If you just want to play around theres like 4 hours of grudge racing before hand that anyone or anything can get in on. I'm not trying to be an elitest asshole but seriously its not fair to "make it fair for everyone". Thats just what I think, and I'm sure I'll get my butt handed to me this coming year.

    Either way as long as we dont do index classes and we have doube eliminations I'm in.
