This country does seem narrow minded though, new classes don't take off quickly and sure enough if the sales aren't there the products aren't available for long, same goes for spares.
From what I've read SC is massive in America, all the magazines over here are reviews SC trucks, they have been for at least a year. Maybe it's the financial climate at the moment but people don't seem to be making the commitment.
So if there are only a few at the clubs it's going to be another class that doesn't get a proper chance
unfortunately everything is down to numbers though, for the importers / distributors, for the shops, this obviously leads down to the buyers, if they don't have the money they're not going to buy a new class when the buggy they have is already paid for and their local club run them every week because there are enough people already owning them to run heats.
It's a pity but unfortunately it's the state of the world.
