yes...the SCB buggies are a blast. If we have 4 of them for racing, they will have their own class, if not we will find a spot for you to race..

We have them for sale in the hobby shop as well... and remember when you buy a kit from West Coast, you receive a free race entry or practice as a bonus.

For all you WC guys that have SCB's. We have a class going for the next two rounds of the JBRL. We will be running 17.5 NT rules but you can change what ever you want on the cars. (TLR upgrade or what ever). It is open to Ultima DB's as well. We have a full heat minimum and hoping to get two full heats. Jimmy will keep track of points for the last two rounds but no payout as this is a test run. If interest is good it may be added to next years classes. If you have one bring it down next weekend and lets show everyone else how cool these things are!

(it will be a fill in clas on the sign up sheets but we have confirmed enough cars to guarentee the class!)

www.jimmybabock.com for schedule.

that is what I was thinking. I have seen some people drive them sooo smooth at west coast. Also I have driven my short course truck without the body while i was testing it for use with the gopro onboard and it just drives so well without that body...

thinking of selling/trading my ft b4 and getting a buggy whatever it's called. anyone want to trade? my b4 has losi shocks on it and stock if you want them

It was another great night at WC! We had 8 heats of ACTION PACKED FUN!!!
We had racers from Pegasus, 714 raceway and LRH join us this evening. We also celebrated Scott Howards 38th BIRTHDAY and Venica prepare cupcakes for all. PROPs go out to NOLAN ANDERSON for laying it down in MOD BUGGY. Danny also looks real SOLID in his TLR SCTE as the ICON guys are doing some major stress testing with the Team Icon 550 4.0 motor that came off at 160 degrees.
This weekend we will conduct our normal Race Programs:
SATURDAY: 2:00pm ONROAD 6:00pm OFFROAD
SUNDAY: 3:00pm OFFROAD and FREE BBQ

If you want clean racing, step up and race mod buggy with us.

If not then you know!
the 22 is coming out to play. Just need to get this JBRL season done with and then i can focus on the buggy more.

racing at WC is clean most of the time because notch actually calls traffic really well. other tracks dont do that and lappers are a pain in the ass most of the time.

ill see you guys in a couple weeks.

Default BBQ

Hey guys, West Coast Raceway is going to host a FREE BBQ for all the racers in attendance.

Week 1 of the NFL is here. We will have most games on all day long.

We'll have:

Coney Island Dogs

Polish Sausage

Spicy Italian Sausage

Come on out and enjoy some racing with some great food.

Also, there will be a moment of silence before racing starts to all of those that lost their lives on 9/11/01.
