Well Bob is pretty close.
It was done to insure that the rulers made their mark as opposed to the participants to participate in the rules.

The only advantage would be extra traction, but I doubt that would offset the extra air drag.  [/quote]

Extra traction, yes, if he fill up the service box with a ice block :wink:

Hello, new guy here, this thread is just what I was about to ask. If I have a vehicle and id doesn't fall in a class why cant I run it ?

I have a home built motorcycle trike. Its is a motorcycle but has 2 driving rear wheels, basicly just like that of the HD servicar.....

It is a 2000 Kawasaki ZRX 1100 that I built a rear axle for as I'm in a wheelchair and paralyzed.

By all words it a motorcycle, all but it has the 2 rear wheels. What ever the class or if it fits in no class the salt flats is one of the things I still haven't done.

Since the crash the put me in the wheelchair I have set out to do the things I didn't get to do before, I have took it out on a road coarse, drag strip, mountain roads and many street miles, even a few magazines.
Well as with many people the salt flats are part of that list of must do's.

If I make it comply with all the safety rules how can I do this ? I have sent a e-mail to Ellen Wilkinson and my e-mail and trike photo has been sent to an inspector to see..

I just want to run !

Take it to the World of Speed next Sept.

Run it on the 130 course and you will not have to meet any class regs. The entry is lower and the satisfaction of saying you ran on the salt is the same.

You could also probably run it for USFRA 150 club.  Now if you built a sidecar rig, 3 wheels, 2 in the same track, you would fit easily in a class...

Not that it will happen but, I can see it now for 3-wheels. 50 thru 3000 cc's, gas and fuel, blown and unblown, partial streamline and non partial streamlin, A & M frame, production, pushrod, etc. Maybe some one will add a side car to one too...... Good Luck....

Not trying to stir the pot or anything but someone's bound to show up with one of these new Can-Am Spyders.  Interesting vehicle and that 990cc Rotax will put out a bunch of horsepower with not much effort.



I've not ridden the Can-Am yet but I'm thinking I'd rather go fast on that than a hot rodded ServiCar.  :-D

As a life long observer of LSR stuff the variety of vehicles is a good chunk of what makes LSR so extremely interesting.
