Re: Battery Buggy B
that's a good point because you could just reuse the building event structures
it would make the competitions a ot less interesting

Re: Battery Buggy B
Wow, I found a possible battery buggy. I found it at a nearby store, It fits all the requirments. The problem is no breaks. Hopefully it can be modifed to work well. Heres an online link if you want to order it. I'll tell you how well it works when I finish building it.

Re: Battery Buggy B
If that works well for you and it fights the requirements, I'll definitely consider buying it. It seems like it would be able to adjust a couple of things here and there.

Re: Battery Buggy B
I built it, works great, just need to figure out the breaking system. Luckly I have a lot of time to do my research. Any suggestions on the breaking system?
