The threat of the mass market 3-wheeled car has been floating around the automotive industry since the beginning of the automobile era. It doesn't matter that removing one wheel doesn't really save you much money, or that they topple over like roller skating college kids on spring break -- because some
lunatic entrepreneur will try and build/sell a million of them. It also doesn't matter that successful auto start-ups have done well by starting at the top of the market where consumers are more willing to be tolerant of dealer visits, like Tesla or the newcomer Faraday Future -- because someday...we will all drive trikes. Like this 2015 "Honda" Custom Reverse Trike found
here on eBay
bidding for $15,099 with 3 days to go, located in Greensboro, NC.
Building and campaigning a race car is an expensive hobby and the amount of time/money you need to spend for a few 20 minute sprint races is...well...pretty nuts. Imagine, however, that you could dual purpose your racer -- drive it at the track AND to work on Friday. I wonder how hard it would be to get specialty vehicle construction plates for something like this 4C Supermodified 5/8 scale CBR Honda powered thing here on eBay bidding for $2750 reserve-not-met with $3,500 buy-it-now located in Seaford, NY.
