Would it be possible to run a short course race once a month on a Tuesday.
People could book in before the day so you no there is enough people to run a race ?.

You can race a short course whenever you like. We've tried for the last year to promote the class locally but only a couple of people have them, personally I love them.

So bring it along and we'll put it into a mix heat. I know Ludders has one but can't race Thursday, I do and so does Darren. Think even Chris Ellis still has his as well.

some people get the hump when you mix it up .
I no i would not want my buggy getting mashed up by a short course :-)
Everyone keeps going on about what good fun they are but no one seems to want to race them .
I dont get it ?

I'm really tempted to get one - if the racing kicks off I'd be up for it

Agree, but it's the double edge sword! we need 5 to run a single heat for them so we get some marshals for the next heat. The more that get em, the more we'll race, I prefer the, to buggies!

but its now sitting in a box waiting to be sold, as just never got to race it.

so for sale, and 4wd is not cheating, its more fun, IMHO...

IF we have a regular monthy tuesday race, and we get enough for 2 heats, or we get a regular thursday heat for them, i would keep it, as its awsome and more fun than buggies. way more fun....

There will never be a solo short course meeting, but we can run a heat for 4 but maybe 5 trucks so all can Marshall.

I'll have my truck this week as my C4.1 has gone and the new one not arriving yet.

Chris is buying one this week too, 2wd.
