Welcome to ScottishCarties
Hi Steven,
Welcome to scottishcarties.org.uk - really glad you found the site useful. If you have any suggestions for things we can add or improve please let me know.
Your cartie looks very slick and I think it'll be very fast. Looking at the pictures, ground clearance might be a issue, and there doesn't seem to be any tow points.
Also - several races allow push starts, so you might want to think about where your pushers will push.
Hi, thanks for the points,
Gravity Racer
Hi, thanks for your feedback, we have started working on the tow eyes, we hope with the suspension that we can adjust it to the course, we are in the process of building and testing the degree of adjustment we will have, hopefully it will be enough, but until the tests. We have tested the back fin and that has enough reinforcement to take a good push, the only problem is the amount of people that will be able to push on it.
Thanks Steven
