Woo Hoo! Nice to see you have come to your senses, it will be an exciting time for you getting to grips with buggy racing! Liking the shell though mate - it is good to have a decent paint sheme since when you crash you rarely damage the bodyshell.
On buggies we use spiked tyres. These have a larger diameter to touring car tyres and you don't need additives on them. The addition of spikes allows for better grip on exotic surfaces such as grass and astroturf.The long things connected to the shock tower are called shock absorbers. These are fitted to touring cars but they have to be much longer on buggies so that they are able to absorb the shock of an impact. You can change the oil in these to adjust the level of damping but should also make sure the springs are appropriate too. A buggy also comes with a slipper clutch. This is a simple device that allows the spur gear to "slip" when the motor pinion is spinning at a different velocity to the spur gear. This can often occur when landing off a jump. Jumps are commonly found on off-road tracks around the country to make a race more interesting, since drivers don't just have to think about getting round corners.

thanks for the info part number shambles, unfortunately, me coming across to buggies means you slip one more place down the rankings!!!!

Grass is an exotic surface?
My back garden must be uber exotic then, envy of the street!




I just loved the look of those smileys all going together.
