I don't know at SCTA, but at ECTA it would be classified as a pitbike.

I'm not sure it's still in the rulebook Eric (and Merry Christmas to you and yours as well), but contrary to popular belief,,, the rulebook is a guidline to the rules just as the inspection sheet is a guideline to the rulebook. If the organization it's at says it can't run... it can't run - and I'm not seeing Joe wanting to wait for this guy to balance his way towards the traps anytime soon.

Maybe the car guys will let something like that add some training wheels for one of their classes, but I think us bike bguys have enough classes (notice I didn't say class) as it is.

That "vehicle" would be best used in the barstool type arena at USFRA in my opinion. 

Here you go Glen (in case his atachement feature wasn't working)...

Todd,

I won't sign off on it unless he drills and safety wires his drain plug.

He will need to run on a special really short course.  Imagine having to wait for him to clear the course if he is ahead of you.

Tires don't follow a single track.  May have to strap a barstool to the side and call it a sidecar. :-D

But, we can't stifle the innovation. So, start a new class called WTSTX  (want to see the X-rays)
