I know my Dad used to race trikes at echo valley. They used a tie down to lower the back and pulled the forks through the triple trees to lower the front. They ran the track backwards to how we run it these days and used to do faster laptime than the cars in the car club when they ran the track except the trikes did the dog leg while the cars went straight through. They still did better laptimes. This was back when trikes were not accepted by MA or maybe it was just MQ so they had to run around with car clubs.
Ill ask Dad about some more info. when he flies home this weekend and ill post it up here. Very HappyVery Happy
P.S. Dad was on a Tri-Z but he isnt sure where its gone. Didn't keep track of it after he sold it.

Hi ozquad44. We raced trikes in the 80s for 4 year in south australia wicked fun . Mostly 4 hour enduros and some sprints. I have owned trz250, 250r and a 350x would like to see some of them racing again.Will try to find some pics of the racing in the 80s.
