Was there this much hate about 17.5 2wd buggy when it started? Oh thats right, it was stock OR mod but that was many many years ago. When I first started racing I wasn't thrust into the mod class to ultimately be a back marker getting in the way. If I were, I would have stopped racing before I even got into.
Ive run wheeler at LHR with a 6.5 in the car. Yes it was awesome to pull the trigger but I wasnt wheeling the car on pace. Broke the car multiple occasions, frustrated with it and not being able to get the car dialed in, I gave up on wheeler and shelved it. Finally got tired of it collecting dust and sold it. The idea of 13.5 wheeler has lit a fire in me to run wheeler again. I will run 13.5 where I can.
Side note; 32 mod buggies - 28 blinkie buggies at my race, why is it acceptable in 2wd but BASHED in 4wd?
This is and will be the only post I make on this topic.
