    Biggest 3 wheeler race of the year, just 2 days away!!!

    The stage is set More racers in one class than ever before!

    If you ever wanted to see what it was like in 1986 when trikes ruled the tracks, then get your butt to Smith Road Raceway this Labor day!

    Don't miss your shot at the fastest Trike racers in America!!





    It's about time to get our group together for another trip to Smith Road. Labor Day is the last race of the season and i'd really like to see 10-12 trikes there.

    So far this year we've managed to get 7 and 8 trikes there on seperate occasions and it's quite spectacular. There are people actually coming out to the races now specifically to see us race.

    This track is by far the easiest track to start your racing career on. It's an old school track from the early 70's with lots of elevation changes and not much for jumps. Every jump out there can be rolled over and still keep you in the middle of the pack. This is the safest track you could ever race on.

    If you have a 200X, 350X, T-3, Any year R, or Z these trikes are proven to be competitive. If you can pitch your trike sideways in 3rd gear you can hang at this track!

    This is also a good time to get some great action shots of you racing your 3 wheeler. Mike from Motolenz (out TF photographer) will be there snapping shots again this time.

    You can mapquest to Medina Ohio for travel arrangements and/or distance from your place.

    Join in this thread if your interested in running in one of the best 3 wheeler races this year!

    You know TimJr and I will be there. TimJr is looking for some competition on his 200x. You dont need to be a top form racer, or be on a race trike to have the time of your life. Dont feel you have to battle the guys in the front to have a good time.

    Brian, I've never seen anyone camping in the pits, but i'm sure we can figure out sleeping arrangments for you. Looks like your just under 5hrs away, so your probably looking at $100 in fuel roundtrip + a vacation day on tuesday. Hope you can make it. I really wanted to run with you at TF.

    Tim, the cost is $10 admission and $20 for the first class, $15 for any additional classes. Well worth it! Tim your not even 3hrs from the track. That's a no brainer! Careful though, because this track is addictive.

    Tether switchs are required. I've never had mine checked and even raced my 350X without one, so whatever.

    Cool!! So, who lives close to the track that is able to put myself and my G/F up for the night? I'll bring the beer! Where do all you racers stay?

    This is a no-brainer and I WILL be attending - no more arm-chairing for me

    Also - she (the G/F) is thinking of running her Auto-X - is there a practice day?

    Hey brandon, just looking on mapquest.

    Think you could meet us at Findlay? Its a better drive for us then. Take 401 in canada, then I 75 south for 100 miles then take 1 exit and get into Findlay.

    What say you?

    There is no practice day, however they have quad practice at 8:00am sharp on race day. Generally can get in 5 or so laps. Tim, is your girlfriend experienced on her trike?
