ummm, whom have you been talking to about the rear steer concept? I have not been told I can't do it, but that I could expect MANY inspectors investigating the vehicle when it hit tech inspection. T

Hi John; Two or three years ago I wrote the technical committee a letter with a proposal for a rear steer 500CC streamliner. The reply I received was from John Bjorkman who I believe was head of the
