American Racing Sulkies

[Mighty Atom]

Can anyone tell me why we have never adopted the American sulkies? The Advantedge 2 Lift Bike has a good 2 secs advantage on times compared to our bikes so I've been told.

Hello buster, I know they are not approved gear,but I was wondering why?. What's so different about them that we can't use them.

[buster]

they are wider and shorter so that its sitting over there back legs when striding rather then being behind them as ours are

i see no benefit to our racing by using them, US racing is ridiculously boring

I like the gigs we already use and i also like seeing the horses racing side by side and close together, when watching the wider gigs in the states when there side by side and because the wheel base is so much wider you could near fit another horse in between them.

UFO sulkies banned from being distributed ( but not used???)....the cart has bolted? These were the carts that caused the furor at the Ballarat Cup meeting.
