Speaking of racing prerunners

[Rory]

I was wondering, what class would a 4 seat prerunner buggy be legal in? I want to race a couple races later this year or next but I only want to race in the sportsman class. Is class 14 in MDR for 4 seaters too? I know SNORE has a sportsman buggy class but I don't know what makes it legal for the class....motor size, suspension (a-arm or beam), or even safety restrictions. SCORE also has a sportsman class but I'm not familiar with the rules. Anyone? Thanks in advance. Wardy.

Let me restate that.There were two, four seaters racing in class 1300. I think there were over 10 in the class.

Hi Rory,

There was an A-Arm car with a Type IV motor racing a the BB400 in the Sportsman class. I think SCORE is wide open too. Certainly, Whiplash is.

I am planing to run my car as soon as I can sneak my oldest son in as a co-driver. He's 12 now.

As for safety. For all events, I would think that you need window nets and 5 point belts. I went a bit further and put a fire bottle and plumbing in.

How is your car coming along? Do you have any photos to share?

PJC, The car is coming along nicely. It's actually in your neck of the woods (Bruce Fraley). Hopefully it should be done next weekend if all the parts arrive on time. I got a few pics of it on the "Readers rides" section here.
