Any of you guys played with your buggies in the snow? We are looking at 3-5" by morning so I am going to go play in the neighborhoods a little. Bad thing is I can't work on it today, lol. everytime it has snowed in the past I have it tore apart or something so I've never tried it. Wish me luck :lol: :lol: :lol:

If your in more than 6 inches you will realize that you cant let off the throttle....EVER! You dont coast in the snow at all. You will constantly dig 2 trenches in it & never stop spinning. I would like to try it with cut boggers nce I think they would help but the tires I had at the time were useless.

lets see if this works.ImageImageImagethis was back in dec.we had around 30" snow and drifts was over 3ft.vtreads go real good but you push snow until the front tires get clogged up and then back up and jump the snow you piled up and keep a trucking.its a cuuting brake doing doughnuts til you get dizzy fun.chad :mrgreen:
