    World Buggying Records

    World Buggying Records

    More Detailed Speed Chart


    Only PBs with a photo of the GPS/Speedo will be verified and entered on the charts.

    No point in any cheating and holding the GPS out of your car window lol

    I only need a few details
    Your Forum Name/Your Name
    Your Country
    Your PB

    And finally photographic evidence of the GPS/Speedo send to


    Heading your Email Buggy PB


    Speeds of over 30mph can be dangerous to both yourself and the public.

    Personal and public safety is paramount when attempting a personal best speed.

    Use suitable safety equipment, have someone watching over you in case anything goes wrong and be very aware of any members of the public in your vicinity

    Make sure you have insurance

    Make sure your buggy and equipment are up to the job.

    Most of all do not take risks, do not come to us if you have a problem, we do not endorse any speed attempt.

    DISCLAIMER: Be sure that you are competent to undertake your proposed attempt and use suitable equipment, taking account of the terrain, weather conditions, etc. You attempt any personal best speed run entirely at your own risk and kitecrowd, popeyethewelder and buggybags accepts no responsibility for injury, loss of life or any other loss

    Here's my top speed ever & is nothing to shout home about but what might be more impressive is the 102 kms I did just one way on that day.



    66.6 kph converts to 41.38 mph
    Will forward on your e-mail.

    Can do a pic of my GPS once I put some fresh batteries in it

    Ok, so 40 isn't that fast, but I'm impressed

    I have seen 80+ mph recorded on a GPS before now.
    Not convinced they are totaly reliable for maximum speeds.

    I'll second that. He sent me an email soon after his epic speed run.
    c_quad_squad is an outstanding buggier who I met in Aussie during the BBB & he even joined us here for a week's buggying in the UAE a couple of years back.

    Nigel, See you've awoken from your Downunder slumber.
    Glad to hear you are still alive & kickin'
