I have two questions.

What is the name of the off road racing that uses buggies with massive horsepower to do basically hill climbs and obsticle coarses?

A while back there was a thread on good suspension books and general design books. I think BillaVista and Drew had some good ones.

Thanks

The buggies were on an episode of Extreme Machines on The Learning Channel. I don't know what they called them but if I'm not mistaken they were from Iceland.:eek:
