How's the rear downforce helping the traction on grass?

You guys are funny  H^^

One idea is to load it on a trailer and take it to Brodaks, if you've been you can imagine how handy this thing would be running to the circles. Problem is it's heavy and on skinny tires, if the ground is soft at all it leaves 3 very nice ruts. Looked at putting wide tires on it but the rims are not standard and it would be a major undertaking. The path between my shop and the circles is more or less paved so here it isn't a big enough problem to justify the expense and trouble it would take to make it lawn friendly.

It's really too bad, it would sure be a hoot to have it at Brodaks.

Bob, this is a great idea.  After seeing this I have been thinking of a three wheeled bicycle.  Not only would it haul planes, but, would also give me exercise.  Need to find me an old Shwinn(so old can't remember spelling).  Have fun,  DOC Holliday
