摘要： A racing sulky to be drawn by a horse, the sulky including a pair of rails (12) each having a first end (16) and a second end (18). From the second end (18), a first segment (28) extends forwardly and inwardly, a second segment (30) extends forwardly and outwardly from the first segment (28) and creates a first bend (22) therebetween. A third segment (32) extends inwardly toward a centerline CL from second segment (30) and creates a second bend (24) therebetween. The first, second, and third segments (28, 30, and 32) extend upwardly at the same angle, and a fourth segment (34) extends forwardly, outwardly, and downwardly from the third segment (32) terminating at the first end (16). A transverse member (36) spans the rails (12) and is attached to the second ends (18) of the rails (12). The transverse member (36) extends laterally beyond the second ends (18), and terminates in a pair of transverse member ends (38). A pair of outer struts (50) extend downwardly from each of the transverse member ends (38), and a pair of inner struts (51) spaced inwardly from the transverse member ends (38) also extend downwardly from the transverse member (36). A wheel (52) is rotatably mounted between each of the inner and outer struts (51 and 50). A pair of outer support arms (56) extend upwardly and inwardly from a lower end (54) of the outer struts (50) and attach to rails (12) at about or rearwardly of the second bend (24). A pair of inner support arms (56) extend upwardly from the inner struts (51), and attach to the outer support arms (56). A seat (42) located between the rails (12) extends rearwardly and downwardly from said transverse member (36). When seat (42) is so angled, the driver is held in an aerodynamic position, reducing the drag on the horse.
