I proofread best I could but I may have missed something,,therefore we reserve the right to make corrections. I know some will disagree with these rules but they were discussed heavily with a dozen committee members and I think they deserve gratitude rather than quarrel. thanks and see you in the woods.,,,Oh and the dates will follow soon.

Looks good guys. Dont see 4x4's or sxs's competing in 2wd, so dont worry about a ton of rzrs or Mark. Qualifying runs not averaged in in B-class, just C-Class? Best full set of rules yet. Need to make sure we post these tech specs on the fliers, small print should do.

I must not be reading something right.I read it as all 4x4's can enter.rzrs xp 900 is about 5" short on the wheel base but the stock 4seater with rims and tires would be legal.so why would they run it in 2wdthen that would just eliminate them,they are legal to run 4wd.and the 64"min width and86"wheel base is to accomidate somebody because there isn't a buggy out there that short or narrow.so alot of sxs's will not qualify so this might limit the entries.so if you fixed it to allow one or two certain people in then you should.
Have dropped the wheel base 5" and just allowed them all in.chad :mrgreen:

And as far as the length, it is because we have a few guys running that length and a buch running 90" at Haspin here in Indiana. And they run strokers in em too. It is very tight on alot of what we ride and my 103" has trouble making the turns as fast as the short buggies do.
