This section within the BRCA is run by a small group of experienced racers whose aims are to put on a really great bunch of events to provide you with the most enjoyable day as possible.
We have 2 types of race classes all running together on the same day; Nitro powered Truggys and Electric powered Buggys (E8).
1/8th scale 4WD Truggys are similar to 1/8th 4WD Rallycross (Buggy) cars but they are wider, longer and have Truck based body shells.
1/8th scale 4WD E8 Buggys are very similar to 1/8th 4WD Rallycross (Buggy) cars but they are powered by Lithium Polymer batteries.
1/8th Scale E-Truggy's are starting so appear too. When we have more of these there will be a E-Truggy Championship.
The national races are held on off road circuits around the country. The tracks can feature all sorts of obstacles such as jumps and tabletops and they are generally made of Astroturf, dirt or grass. The thrills of driving both these types of vehicles are hard to match with other sections of racing!
The 2025 Committee is:
Chairman - Chris Jeffery (Also the BRCA Events Officer)
Secretary - Sophie Clarke
PRO Officer - Ashley Pattison
Scrutineer - Ralph Pattison
