The best thing to do is find out what classes there are at whatever track they plan to race at. A 17.5 class would be a great starting point if there is one.

Well for one of them it will be novice for awhile the other start there to get a hang of it then all we offer is open buggy. He is fine as long as he gets track time. Trevor if you remember the Albuquerque race from last summer thats the track they will run at.

Can anyone tell me off the top of their head what parts I need to buy to run the Dustin Evans set up? I just bought the LRC 3.5 toe plate.... is there any other parts I should pick up?

Read here in section 5, Pro Setups & Sheets. I've found the TLR22 Guide Sticky to be quite helpful.

Has anyone figured out how to get the 22 on the Hudy setup station without drilling out the holes on the setup plates?

1/10 off road doesn't need to be that precise. Just use a camber / toe / ride height gauge and you will be fine

I understand that, but I would prefer to use my setup station. Anybody else?
