Hello ODK thrill seekers

An ABC News article and video discusses ride-on racing in the
crown jewel state of Australia - Tasmania.

As the article says, "It's a cheap man's motorsport"...

I can see a lot of OH&S issues in there and I wonder if any are using Briggs motors

Hi CyberJack and NK,
they should be made to have functional blades otherwise they just amount to quad bikes without suspension to me.

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!

Evening Gents!

From all the articles I've read it seems a very family orientated sport.

Looks like a lot of fun!
