It would be really cool but it would work using the same carpet (unless we got new for the touring cars) as the pins/spikes would wreck the carpet and it would have no grip for the touring cars.
Just my opinion mind, buggies would be cool though and should be restricted to 2wd lol ;D

I asked this same question at stocksbridge, they didn't seem too interested. Bit of a shame really, they could do with their numbers raising some what! with buggy numbers as they are I'm sure it would of benefitted them.
Could always run foams no additive on the buggies.

Dont they do slicks for buggies ??
alternate fridays would be better rather than adding and removing jumps, but I think it would only work in winter as once Robinhood opens up in the spring everyone would go outdoor I'm guessing, but it is a real good idea and I'm sure it would attract quite a few drivers as said 1/10th off road is quite popular at the moment.
I think it would be more realistic to ask Paul about the possibility of running a couple of meetings (assuming suitable tyres are available) maybe in the next winter season, it would also be worth finding out who would be interested in doing it.
Firstly race ontrol might be a issue (if on alternate weeks) then theres time restrictions if its on the same week as touring, etc etc.
Not that I'm against it (as it would be cool) but I cant see it happening, best ask paul first I think.

I ask Paul H about starting a mini car round for beginners.Was absolutely not interested. So the buggy thing I'd say not a chance.
When it would be a winter thing only,plus I have never seen 1/10 slicks for buggy's. Having said this I have not looked for them.
There is a bmx track in Hatfield that would lend it's way to a very good buggy track

I think its a brill idea but there wouldnt really be time as we struggle as it is to get finished in time, would an alternate week work where you used the other side of the carpet for buggies? i would definately do it as i have a 2wd buggy i have always wanted to try race with  |
