Personally I like the idea of allowing the other engines to run
(although I'm not likely to build one anytime soon unless this part
of the sport took off around here or they were allowed to run with
the four wheel pullers [probably more likely as there's already MANY
motorcycle powered 4 wheel pullers]),, I think your much more likely
to see others get into the sport as a result.. at only ten members on
here I think the more immediate problem is getting the word out,,with
some effort seems like a show should sell itself,, lots of action,
noise, relative safety and cost to build plus there's a LOT of bikes
around for builders... Hope to see it GROW !! Geo
