    very cool idea.

    saw something similar outside the local atv shop some years back. only difference was they got rid of track and built a rear swingarm and mounted atv tires and axle on the rear.

    they do seem to get the hole shot. which does not surprise me when you have a 3cyl 2 stroke motor and no gears to shift. but if you watch the video some more you can see it have to slow down a lot for the turns and in one instance is actually holding up the rest of the pack. this doesn't surprise me either because the track is so long and anyone who rides snowmobiles know they don't have a tight turning radius.

    must be heck on the snowmobile parts though. they must replace track slides every other race and I see a radiator and fan on the back to that must be how they are able to run in the hot weather.
    Trikes: All Honda: 84 250r, 85 86 and 87 250sx, 84 and 85 125m, 79 82 84 and 85 110's, 73 us 90 and 77 atc90, 75 atc70
    Cycles: Honda: 71 cb100, 78 cb750 coming soon cb750 trike. Yamaha: 67 yds 3 (250cc, 2cyl, 2 stroke), 82 750 SECA
    Other toys: Chenoweth VW sandrail dune buggy, old race go kart, racing mower, 76 Arctic Cat Pantera 440 snowmobile

    KEEP IT ON ALL 3 OR AT LEAST 2 AT A TIME

    I've been meaning to stop at "Da Tourist Trap" and get a pic of the of the big red tricycle. I work less than a mile away and drive by it several times a day. It actually runs and is rideable, it has a Briggs engine with a belt to the car rear end.
