If you can get it through tech you can race it!

At 5500# and a top speed of 30 MPH how much tech can they do. If I wear a helmet, and put wheelie bars on I should be OK! :lol:

Rick,

If you race the tow, I want to run the other lane on my bicycle. Would probably be a good race!

Rick,

I'm half serious. No not Slant powered, but Slanted Heart powered.

My guess is I could do 30 MPH average speed on the bike for 1/4 mile... Would be a fun exhibition!

Lou

If I get this new tow motor, would it be possible to have a new class for 5000# and over. Ryan suggested that I race it before I tear the engine out! :D New class could be for Tow motors, 2 ton dualies, and motor homes! If Lou agrees I'll race it at Hagerstown in May! Then my truck won't look so slow! :lol:

Rick
I like it! :D I see those Cortez motor homes with Slant 6 power up for sale once in awhile... One of those might make a good addition to my racing endeavors and "Slant the World" theme... :D

You know, the new rules are great!

It just begs for a new class though. I know Frank is thinking it.

AA/Nitro! :twisted:

Glad you like 'em, CJ! Hopefully these will expand our racer interest a bit more. Bring out them rails and street cars!!
