• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I heard a rumor that the 2011 NHRA rulebook says that there is no 3 wheeled vehicles aloud on the track? I tried to download the rulebook but had no luck. I love it they ban a trike like the Canam and not Skidoo's..

Well with the racing season months away I wish you were right Doc. Under the Pro Stock bike rule it doesn't say anything about three wheeled bikes but as we all know spydee is a far cry from a pro stock. My buddy just shared this with me :sour:

The rule is in the 2011 NHRA rulebook, section 4C, page 12, E.T.MOTORCYCLE, (not pro-stock). First paragaraph says: "ET/MC, preceded by rider number. For motorcycles running 7.50 seconds or slower. Three-wheel vehicles prohibited."

How come skidoos can run and we can't? It's the very same platform as them, if they wanted to keep off the tippy goldwing or HD trikes they should specify that. Way to go.
