Not to the sandrail Park.. Mark has been working on them for quite a while now to get them to let Buggies join... They use full size rails their mostly. and not a huge place... Can you say squish!!!!!!!!!
Anyhow, I think he has worked it out so hopefully after the rally. (if I can Invite myself )
The area is a 25 acre park and is pretty much wide open. The video that is shown doesn't show that part. There are also hard packed trails with some tabletops for the smaller carts. They are a blast too. It doesn't get to crowded and the people out there are great. You can camp and are actually only 1 mile from a Publix .
This is the website that shows the rails doing their business out there.

My latest personal test of the stinger's capabilites took us to a place in north central florida called the Horse Hole also known as www.mudup.com
There is the testing grounds, only where BIG trucks nomally go, the ATVs have been let loose to attack the BOG. This is 7 acres of pure soupy sandy loam.. The Bog had been churned up for 2 days with massive ATVs and now the Stinger has been released into the pit.
The results were far better than expected. It blasted and churned the mud and ran approx 300+ feet to the sand bar. I drove around until i found the spot that many 4x4s had gotten stuck. I plunged into the mire and almost made it to the end when the muck sucked the cart down in defeat. Once pulled out we ran around for about 30 min in that muck. We were pulled out a total of 3 times. Not bad for a 2wd cart!
I've since driven these at Paddys and I was quite pleased with the ride and overall performance of the buggy. Great job by Glenn in putting these machines together.
