Hi Tom,

I can't help you with Cougar 95 spares, nore Dave Quemby's number but I did know Dave pretty well back when I raced at Huncote (tues night) and Beoumont Leys (fri night) clubs - is that where you know him from? He moved into 1/5th scale but its a good few years since I last saw him, I'm pretty sure he's no longer racing.

Cheers for the post Gary,
Yes indeed, it was the Huncote vipers tuesday nights that I first knew dave through. I was a regular in the early 90's. If you're the Gary I'm thinking of, just on an off chance? Have you a Dad called Brian and a brother called Arron? Strange, having dusted off the cougar, the recollection of those days is slowly piecing together. Again, cheers for the reply,
Tom

Hi Tom,

No, wrong Gary! I raced at Huncote 92 - 95 (ish).

Good luck with the Couger!

Cheers,

Gary.

Hi Stox217,

Buggy Racing is really cheap to do.........almost as cheap as Mardave!

I know that money can be abit of an issue, but you have Christmas coming up & a good 4months to get a Buggy organised. You can pick up Buggies at a reasonable price, on a well known Aution Site(a good one for as little as £40-£50 with Batteries), the rest of the Equipment you can transfer over from your Mardave :D
