I wonder if there is a lever to move it?  That drive is commonly used on Snow Blowers.  For you southern guys, that's the white stuff that falls out of the sky during cold weather!  LOL

I just did a Google search and it seems to be called a friction wheel drive system . Friction wheel and traction plate or pulley .

Interesting .

Thanks for all of the pictures - I appreciate you sharing them. It's always good to know what happened at Portland.  I couldn't make it this year, but hoping it works out for next year.   Thanks again.
