The cog side on the right the drive side . But if your going to run on a NASCAR track the sprocket and cog on the left ?
Thank you. Not that it matters, but is there a reason for it being on the right (which is where i have it mocked up)?
 
I think it usually depends on where you live in the world. Trikes in Britain tend to run the opposite to USA trikes, I think it has something to do with pulling away from the kerb.
 
I have built 2 delta trikes, the fat tire one with a coro body uses a jackshaft to make the left side the drive wheel. The low rider version on 20" wheels uses the right side as the drive wheel. Both work great and I,ve never noticed any tendency to pull to either side when riding. Also both are E assist.
