The unlimited class is just that, unlimited. There's nothing in the rules against it.

Look at the rules link in the comp section, under unlimited class, it does not specify the number of axles. I thought it was limited to 2 axles, but the unlimited section doesn't say.

I think 8-10 nylint axles would be better/stronger.

It'd count, that is until you run it.

Then they'd "clarify" the rules to dis-allow it.

Why ban it anyway? I doubt it would out perform a good comp-level rig. Even if you made one using 5 Clod axles, the weight and size would hinder it's performance.

Nevertheless, it looks pretty cool to mess around with.

Oh, I got it alright. But you know sooner or later, someone is going to step up with something that has potential, yet is of "questionable" legality for competition. Then we will see how the rules hold up
