In 1990 the asymmetric sulky was introduced into North America, winning seven of its first nine starts at Freehold, NJ. Today the great majority of sulky manufacturers in North America are producing asymmetric sulkies.
 
An additional sulky type is the "team-to-pole" or "pairs" sulky, a lightweight single seat sulky designed for draft by two horses abreast.
 
These may also be split into two types, a) traditional pole and yoke with draft by traces, and b) dorsal hitch with draft direct from the saddle to the yoke and, via the pole, to the sulky.
 
Of the two, the dorsal hitch pairs sulky is the most recent, holding all current world pairs speed records over the mile
