I have a vintage Jerald sulky. When I acquired it 12 years ago, I purchased the racing harness also. It has a quick hitch setup.
There are no sulky drivers around me, and I'm afraid I didn't pay much attention to them at a show I went to last year to see how they are attached to the horse.
Do roadsters have singletrees? My little sulky does not. The shafts attach to the metal quick hitch on the saddle and there is a simple breast strap attaching to the saddle. It is designed for light weight, straight forward work.
I like using it with my older mare, as she seems happier with the lighter weight of the sulky instead of my heavier cart. But I am not sure it is a good set up for realistic driving.
