Value BRCA Shorty

[westyguesty]

Any suggestions on good value BRCA approved shorty packs for 2wd buggy. Only really club racing with the odd BRCA event. Have always used Gens Ace, but the shorty they do is £10 more than the saddles I used from them.

Thanks

Any recommendations for a higher end shorty. Looking for a couple myself for 2wd, is there much in performance between the likes of the Orion carbon pack at 42 quid apposed to the like of balls out ones at 55 & reedy at over 70?

Cheers

There may be a small diffrence, but generally not enough that you would notice from new. My 3 shorties are just reaching two years old, and i am starting to notice that the punch on one pack has gone a little soft. But i dont feel the need to go out and buy expensive batteries again. Especially considering how good some of the non-brca approved packs are.

My main criteria is now pack design, colour and brand loyalty. Does that make me shallow? BRCA compliance is also a great idea. especially too avoid getting draw into any circular arguments on the topic :p
