This should be the week. Not much excitement for this unlike the B6.1? I will wait until others start racing them and see what they think.

They've been looking really good at sdrc and getting great results so far.

I only get to race Offroad 4-5 times a year ( due to most places racing Saturdays around here). I have one buggy a 3.0, so maybe every 8 times I race its time for a new Buggy ! Not to mention all the between model changes and option parts for stock racing too. Now with the Carpet tracks now you need 2 buggies.
Im not excited when new models come out that makes my equipment even more obsolete .With a 3.0 completey stock with a standup Trans there is really no point to continue racing Offroad for Me .
I think many just quit because the costs just keep adding up . Thats why Im not excited

So is the 5.0 enough to get me away from my b6? I went all AE 2 years ago loving my sc6 and t 6 but still have the older b6.

They put a lot of emphasis on steering with the new model, so I expect it to be very good.

I have noticed just in general that 2wd buggy is dying off in atleast my area. 4wd is king around me with atleast 4 full heats of 13.5 . Where stock and mod 2wd only have 4 or 5 entries. I think it’s just tricky for some to get the rear grip in a laydown car. I personally love laydown but to get the car dialed it does take some setup work. Where as 4wd you can juts hustle it around the track. I seen the biggest 2wd crowd say when the 3.0 mid motor cars came out.
