That's still pretty cool footage. Didn't sound to me like the other bikes were holding back. I think that's one fast trike.

West350bruin i looked at 3ismorethan4 's video's and they looked like some good racing , i didn't even try to look at them till a few minute's ago ; and thank's for correcting my spelling on the Cheech and Chong i guess there's more than one head on this post ; i heard the album and saw all the movie's when they were new and i still get a laugh when i think back to those day's of old ! I took out that part of my first reply because i didn't want 3ismorethan4 would think i was calling his post as a lie , i was only jokingly pulling his chain ; and like i said in the edited part both my cousin and my youngest brother both had three wheeler's and i tried to ride them ! But since i lost both my leg's in 1975 in an automobile accident , me and one of my younger brother's were trying to help a friend push his Dad's car out of the road when he ran out of gas ; we got within ten yard's of the driveway when a speeding car came over the road and hit me and the car catch me between the bumper's ! They said when the car's hit it launted me about 20 feet in the air taking both leg's off judt below the knee's , i've told this story before on the forums and some people ask if they tried reataching my leg's ; but there wasn't anything left to reatach ! The crash shreaded both leg's like spagetti ( feel free to correct the spelling of the word spagetti if i spelled it wrong ) and don't feel bad for me because i was saved by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ that day on the side of that road ! The friend we were helping push the car was and still is one of my very best friend's to this day ! When i first met the guy we got together at his brother and sister inlaw's home , and we use to get in some heated debate's about our belief's ; he didn't believe in God and i was raised as a Christian even though i didn't atend church and was out in the world of sin ! But that day when i was lying in the road bleeding to death , he told me he didn't know if there was a God or not ; but he said let's pray together and we did when i was in out out of it ! I came to only second's after the crash ! And i was in and out when the rescue squad got there on the scene , they couldn't believe i was going in and out of it like i was my friend had just started a new job 2 week's before the accident ; and the company was giving first aid class that covered the right way to tie turniket's to help slow the bleeding and the weather had only gotten up to 18 degree's alday long ! It was almost sundown and the temp had already dropped down to about 8 degree's when the crash happened and the Doctor's said that the cold and the fact that my friend was trained in first aid and a lot off thing's fell into place , and they had just finished a bypass route that shaved off at least an hour for them getting me to the hospital ; iwas in and out of it all the way to the hospital ! When we got to the hospital and in the emergency room as they were rolling me through the door a nurse was right there waiting , when one of the ambulance asked the nurse what he was to do with with this bag and i raised up and said what bag ; all who were present said that the nurse almost passed out and after she composed herself she ask you mean he is awake ? And then the EMT's told her that i was in and out just second's after the crash and that i was in an out the whole trip to the hospital , then the last thing i heard was the nurse say he's going into shock ; and from the time i came to after the crash i didn't know my leg's were gone ! I just remember trying to get up so i could get out of the middle of the road , and my friend kept telling me lay still that i was hurt real bad i kept trying to get up and telling ( Dennis ) my friend i think my leg is broke ; he kept holding me down and telling not to try getting up ! I finally told him to at least help me out of the road before another car would run over me again , so to get me from trying to get up on my own he dragged me over to thr shoulder off the road ; after he got me out of the road i stopped trying to move or get up and let Dennis take care of me ! It was at this time when he had gotten me out of the road that he told me he didn;t know if there was a God but let's pray ! It was over three year's before i could drive a car again and start doing thing's by myself ! I'm sorry to everyone on this thread being so long but this is my Testament and i pray no one ever has to go through something like this like did , i know that this the reason for me being alive today ; if i could make just one person to not take this in mind that you can be alive on moment and gone the nest ! Ok i just thought i had to tell you all my story of life or death that we're all mortal's and we're not promised how long we have on this old earth , and there's a thin veil between this world and the next ; i left out all the pain i went through it would make novel to tell you all ! If you read this all of it i thank you and i wish you a long and healthfull life along the way may God bless you all ! ......................

I went to the drags last night at thunder valley and here's some vid's.
This one I had problems with wheelie's against a hrc trx450r.

This is a solid run against the 450r.

What are all the specs on your trike? It sounds like you've dropped some pesos into it.

all the videos were pretty good but i think the 450R might of had a chance if the rider knew what he was doing, and no im not just saying that because i own one. ANY RIDN IS GOOD RIDN.

Looks to me like you are a good dragger. But I can't help but ask what you have done to your motor? The air cooled 250r isn't exactly the fastest machine stock.

Congrats bro, you definately have that trike dialed in at the drags. Looks like you got beat off the line a few times, but were consistant enough to come back. Nice Honda, just keep ridin' her.

3ismorethan4 its clear to me that these guys have never had much seat time on a 250R 3 wheeler, use to drag race back in the day and id take a 250R up against the modern race quads in a drag race any day. Those 250r's were and are bad azz!!

I wasn't going to say anything earlier, but I know any tryke and most quads could beat me on my quad, with a combined weight of over half a ton. No matter how big the rider is on a tryke, you're still going to weigh less. If you guys all have fast cars you're going to win a race against my full-sized truck too.

But I do a lot more than go a very short distance in a straight line. Some days I pack my cooler and ride over 100 miles on trails that a tryke has no business on. That's what I do for fun. I almost never see any 3-wheelers when I ride, but I've seen a couple trykes wiped out, on super-easy to ride trails, with the riders injured. And I tow them if they need towing. So it's a trade off. I can do everything else except drag race. Some people would get as little enjoyment out my kind of riding as I would drag racing.

But that's what's really great about motorsports. There are so many different sides to it that anyone can enjoy some part of it. I just couldn't limit myself to one thing, especially racing on any kind of track. Maybe race a few minutes and ride the trails the rest of the day, or race where there is no track.
