    Time to camp out at the mailbox: 5 page Tri-Z spread in ATV Sport this month

    I've got to say this REALLY REALLY suprised me. Theres a pretty neat little 5 page article in ATV Sport going over the beginnings of the Tri-Z (With all up to date and recent photos) and how it compared to the other trikes. THey actually bash on it a little bit hard compared to the Honda and Kawasaki (Jimmy White calls it a piece of crap ) But its still an excellent read. They also mention in one of the captions of the magazine that there are many three-wheeler fans still out there and to check www.3wheeler-world.com and www.3wheeler.org (Kind of got the address messed up because half was on one line, and the other half on another, but I guess thats OK).

    I'm gonna have to email in now some pictures of my updated Tri-Z to show them how I've nearly fixed all the handling problems. I'll have to make sure to mention Trikefest too

    Yup I posted that on Tri2Stroke.com. You got that issue kind of late Billy? I got mine a week ago. But yeah I read it, I never knew the tri-z werent that ballanced, but i always wanted to know why not many people raced them.

    Dang, and here I thought I was the first one to get it! I also just noticed while going through it that theres some pictures of Susan Parker (Photos by Nate Walsh) that were taken on a track here in town. Thats actually the same track that the guys I'm working with now had built and then got closed down by the county. We're going to be building a replacement track here and thats what I'm going to be tied up with doing this year. We're turning in all papers to the zoning board this coming week. I just thought that was pretty bad ass. The article also mentions that she has a 250R with 20's on it and everytime I go to WRC Racing its sitting there right next to the front door. Pretty neat to see something local like that in full color print magazine

    Its ATV Sport magazine. The March issue (Dont know why it came out so early?) My scanner is down or I'd atleast scan one page. If someone does scan it though I'd request that out of a courtesy to the mag you dont copy the whole article.

    Yeah I guess that the proper thing to do. Didn't really think about it being brand new and everything.
