I've been away from offroad racing for about 2 years and was looking to get back into it. Looking at the clubs website it looks like stock buggy is the big class and 4X4 SCT has dried up. Wondering what the popular buggy is for the track?

Thanks
Dan

No. The parks just asked for some consideration for some of their busier dates and our points series is always a big attendance event. The parks schedule will not affect our racing off-road on the 1st and 3rd sundays as well as on-road on the 2nd and 4th sundays.

It looks like Mike was pretty clear; there will be club races per the normal schedule.

Thanks,
Got my hands on a B5M Lite for the stock class so now I just need to practice, practice, and practice more so I'm not pissing anybody off when I finally make it to a race

Any suggestions for a starting point on tire selection and gearing for 17.5?

Thanks
Dan

i think most are running 69/33 or somewhere around 5.5 - 6.0 FDR depending on your motor.

Due to the Labor Day weekend holiday, the Off-Road Points Series #5 has been moved from September 6th to September 20th. There will not be any Off-Road racing over Labor Day weekend. Hope you all have a great time with your friends and families.
