What secrets do you think they are keeping? Buggy is the most competitive class at Mikes and usually has the top drivers. Sometimes they look fast because they are amazing drivers.
If you are serious about wanting help, post on mike's forum.
I am having issues finding the right gear for my B4.1 using the 17.5. I had thought that with it being the stock 17.5 blinky class that we all should have been about the same, taking driving out of the equation. I suck at driving,and know this, but when someone using the same motor as me blows by me and clears the two doubles like it's nothing, I figured it had to be gearing. I just asked a couple guys and both said it;s a "secret". So I just didn't understand why it had to be that way. I am not asking for the holy grail, just a simple gearing. I know that even if we both had identical cars he would still beat me.
