Short Course racing has dropped off in our area and it seems it is a trend around the country a bit, so there will be NO NW SC Nationals this year.
Instead we are filling the slot with something a little different.

2014 NW Buggy Championships *more details to come in seperate thread at later date*

Is there a rules package for the vintage buggy class yet?

JOE TEUBNER

Will there be a Short Course National race this year?

Joe, it seem that SC only races are not a viable option right now in the area so we are trying something new. Should SC racing pick back up or the buggy race concept fail then we may have to bring it back for 15

Will try my hardest to get to the buggy race. Gotta drag rocky out there too. I love coming up that place. Might skip regionals and save up for this race. I'll spread the word down here about this awesome facility and great times.

What tires and compound are the "go-to" tire for 2wd buggy?

Nate Clark

Justin,

Looking forward to the Buggy Champs race... I noticed that there isn't a nitro buggy class listed on the flyer... I would think that since nitro buggy is arguably the 2nd most prestigious (behind 2WD of course ) "buggy" class there is, it would be offered as a class...no?

Either way, I'm looking forward to the race even if it is elec. only

2WD Truck has been low to avg the past 2 years. It looks to have a few more locals this year but is still expected to avg less than 8 entries
2WD SC Mod- Pretty decent, SC has died a bit so this year is unknown
1/8 Truck- Start of the year with out of towners is decent, fades quickly when its just local, has not been consistent.
I didnt know which truck class you meant so gave em all

Super soft bar type tire (Barcode, Beam, suburb etc..)

There is still the possibility of adding classes, I did not personally fire up this class list for the Buggy race, but we have heard the nitro buggy comment more than once. Its on our radar
