quads work well, very stable cornering.


I can believe that - it's why you don't get 3 wheeled ATV motorcycles
anymore but only quads. Too many bods were tipping the 3 wheelers
over.

Mine's not!

You're not racing the school HPV stuff. They have to have cages and
at least 3 wheels.

There's some HPV rules that (before anyone asks ...) mean there's no
bicycle 'bents racing. They have to have at least 3 wheels and a full
intrusion rollcage.


So the HPVers are trying to kill the DF!!!


ONly if said DF is silly enough to get onto a racetrack with a bunch
of trikes with rollcages and fairings and trying to see via
cameras....
