Rather sad really, I enjoyed the buggies. Who's for filling it with dirt and having a permanent Off-Road indoor dirt track?

a word of advise if you do, ensure you get the right dirt, even if it means a bigger initial outlay.

speak to people like Lee Martin, Tony Truman, these guys have been to the american facilities, have run their own indoor dirt facility and know the deal with how to make tracks.

ensuring you have the right dirt surface will give much more desireability than an 'any old dirt' track!

I can't see anybody voting no to an indoor dirt track to be honest!

absolutely, spend twice as long researching and you will reap the rewards of your efforts rather than doing a 'quick job' of it
