Nightwater:
How did you guys get started In bandoleros, and why?  Also how long did it take for you to get used to it?
Any help or response would prove helpful

Get spare parts and get a enclosed trailer are some of the best things. But learn your engine and that will help you alot.

No offense, but I have to completely disagree with Chance. While I dont run Bandos, I would rather see you spend your money on other things than a big-a$$ trailer and loads of spares.  Spend your money on getting a better car, get a few guys together and rent the track for an afternoon, seat time is more valuable than just about anything when you're starting out, and spend your time at the track in the pits getting friendly with the other drivers. Most everyone Ive encountered is willing to help.
Especially at $4/gallon +, an enclosed trailer, while being overkill and expensive, will sap your gas mileage also. At least 2 of the legends guys I run with sold their big boxes and went to open trailers this year just for the gas savings. As far as spares, the dealer will be at the track, so if you break something, you can get what you need there, and pay him next week if you dont have the cash on you.

I got started in the Bandolero for my sons. I race a Legends and they want to race to. Seat time is my biggest suggestion and keep an eye as to what is happening if front. My son at 11 years old made his first start in the Bando and finished 6th out of 14 cars just by keeping clean.

Lots of Great Feedback thanks Guys, But I also got some great info from someone saying to go Do like a Karting Test or something to get familiar with The style and Driving. Now I'm not saying its not good Info, I just want to know what you guys think about it.
