Had a blast yesterday even though I was struggling with traction in 2wd buggy until the moisture came up in the finals. Once that happened I was dialed and it was just my poor driving holding me back. If I stick it in that inside pipe on the ant hill one more time I'm going to freak.

Videos are uploading but they will take a while, I need to find a place with high upload speeds to take my computer after race days.

2wd Mod Buggy Races, I will update the post as the videos are fully uploaded.

Finally all of the 2wd buggy videos are up...that only took all day. eBuggy will hopefully upload overnight but my daughter is having surgery in the morning (just tonsils) so I'm not sure when I will be able to post them...but will get them up as soon as I can.

I had such a good time yesterday, I didn't get a chance to say hello dan but I hope you saw my head nod when you waved!! what tires are the folks in 2wd buggy use? I was running rebar front and impacts rear and felt hooked up pretty well. I tried a barcode style in between rounds and couldn't get any traction.

How did you get any traction with Impacts in the rear...didn't even think about running them after practicing with them early. I ran JC Flipouts in heat 1, 3 and the Main and PL Tazers in heat 2. The Tazers really hooked up for me the last time I raced at 281 but it was like I was driving on ice this time. I'm not sure if they were shot or if the track condition was that much different.

The go to seems to be PL Calibers...I need to get some.

I ran a set in 4WD SCT last night and they worked really good. They were the Holeshot 2.0's.
