Brilliant footage - very addictive veiwing! The LXTs look so much fun & easy to drive on the dirt, but the Holiday Buggy & Ultima's both look really capable too! 
Edited to add - I assume the camera is hand-held? - would be cool to mount it on a suspended wire/track to get silky smooth footage (although the camera man did very well)

More, More, More.... That was great footage. Can we see more of the ULtima/s? They look awsome out on the track... Guess I really need to use some of my Ultima parts stash to build an orginal caged and narrow framed one. Hard part is getting a cage.

DT02 isn't a bad platform actually... all it needs is a slipper clutch option to be a more than decent entry-level competition 2wd carbearrickster wrote:GREAT video!! didnt anyone notice that holliday buggy rocking it out with those LX-T's. who know that buggy could run like that.

Those LXT's understeer like if there was no tomorrow though

I think it's an Andy's Low Profile LX-T with some of the rear removed.

Re: Check this out. Vintage test day at Boondal, Best foota
I think LTO-Dave is right.
Spoke to the owner and he doesn't know. It came with it. The Trucks are all set up to understeer as the track is so loose. Some times I play to add a little more steering but as the day goes on the track gets looser .
The Holiday Buggy is our spec class. For just over $200 for the the car set up as you see it.
Holiday Buggy,
Ball bearing kit,
Oil shocks all round,
13T EZ Run combo.
We run Losi step pins but that adds another $20.
We normally have around 5 of them. We all are getting into Frogs now LOL.
