After reading some of the negative comments towards sc racing I can see why we struggle to gain more drivers in this sport,I've been to many a race meeting and seen buggies driven to the same standards...badly!...
As I've been racing the sc nationals for 3 years now and I love this sport,I've raced the northwest buggy regionals a few years back and the racing was very costly and intense..with drivers baying for blood if the got took off the racing line..now I race sc instead,it doesnt cost a fortune-tyres last for ages-you don't need the latest stuff to be competitive and best off all there's new younger drivers coming through...and to say there easier to drive..come to a national and see how you fare..
So to say sc is crap is wrong,I could say 1/5 scale off road racing is crap as I've seen them at a demo race near me...but the track was too small,no jumps,boring layout...I'm sure if I saw them at a national event the Appel would be much different.
In the end this sport needs us to buy this stuff,it keeps the model shops open,it keeps the clubs running and it also makes us buy different classes if cars...I did and now I've got a buggy again to race..it also opens manufactures eyes to different things which does convey over to other cars.
So if you've got a stadium truck and non of your clubs are racing them..come to the sc nationals we've got a heat running for you...
