| Sean Costin raced the
Coslinger Special in 2002 and was able to crank it up to
70MPH. The team will be back again this year.
Sean is recruiting a new
rider to pilot the Coslinger Special for Battle Mountain
2003. The Cos Special has been refitted with a Varna
canopy replacing the camera, and a much more upright
position for higher power and more
controllability.
New to the team is
veteran HPV racer Frank Geyer. Frank has proven to be a
fast sprinter, and is training hard to be the new pilot
for the Coslinger team. Frank will need a new
streamliner, as he does not fit in the current Coslinger
Special.
The new streamliner has
been designed by Charlie Ollinger,
and is being built by a host of specialized
contributors. The new Cos II
speedbike will utilize the latest in laminar flow technologies,
a multi link front suspension, and multiple redundant
camera systems is now under construction.
7/30 update
The latest news is that Thom Ollinger will be racing
the Coslinger Special for 2003. The CosII speedbike has
only begun to be built at this point, so (barring any
miracles!), it will not be ready for this years event.
