Isn't 1/8th off road the most popular class in Europe nowadays??
I think things will only get better for 10th though, as the Gov't try harder and harder to stop people using anything with an Engine for pleasure surely Electric will be the future??
Buggy racing is very similar to MX in a lot of ways - years ago you would struggle to get an entry but then it died off big time but has since started to get quite popular again as people can pick up cheaper bikes and equipment now (mainly with stuff being made in China).... i think Electric R/C will just become the standard as it's not noisy or smelly and Joe Public prefer that
