Yes, 4 x 4 vehicles can compete and there is no minimum displacement. However, the buggy must be a tube chassis and the buggy cannot be commercially manufactured.

Thanks for having a hill climb this year ..I'm definitely not complaining I know it takes a ton of time and effort to make this stuff happen . And it gives us buggy folks something to look forward too..plus we can talk a little friendly smack on woodsbuggy this coming year. I think it's great for the site

Any good driver in a 2 seater can hang or beat a single in my opinion . Heck I have seen a 4 seater frame put a whoopin on a single before .
I would consider my car a low b class car but i will run a class just to do it .now my driving is a z class rating 8)

Another question Dan , are we taking the best 3 out of 7 races? And do you have to be present at the finale? The reason I ask this is because in case of a tie ,it would be really exciting to have a runoff right there instead of going by the fastest run .imo


I have updated the rules to allow for a run-off at the finale if there is a points tie. If someone does not attend the finale event and they are in a tie, they will lose the run-off and lose the tie.

You got a point Dan. I'm all for busting the 2 seaters and 1 seaters up so I don't have to run against him

Idea - How about adding a 4th class called, "Young Guns," ages 15 years and younger?

No entry fee for this class
Instead of a cash payouts at the end of the series, winners receive prizes!


Just throwing that out there! Cheers!

Based on popular demand, I have updated the rules to allow for Bolted Tires in the A Class. (Only if the park allows bolted tires)

Got a question Dan.... In a class we will run 4 times one on c hill,one on b hill,and two on a hill. Do you take all 4 times and get the average? Or just add them up and lowest wins? Either way a c run or b run will be just as important as a a run correct?

Actually, each race (or heat) will be timed and count for points. The A Class will earn points for for the C Hill, the B Hill and the 2 A Hill races.

5 Points for starting the Hill
5 Points for finishing the Hill
Position Points for 1st through 5th place for each race.

At the end of the day, all of the points from the 4 races will be added together.

EXAMPLE of A Class:
Race 1 on the C Hill - 3rd place (16 Points 5 + 5 + 6)
Race 2 on the B Hill - 7th place (10 Points 5 + 5 + 0)
Race 3 on the A Hill - DNF (5 Points 5 + 0 + 0)
Race 4 on the A Hill - 1st place (20 Points 5 + 5 + 10)

The Total for this event is 51 Class A Points.

The top 3 Total event points will be added together to determine the winner of the series.

Does that make more sense? I will try to add some additional details to the rules to make it more clear.

I am always open to comments and thoughts on the scoring.

There are dozens of ways to score the events. I like this method because everyone gets multiple chances to win points.
