FIA Creates New Category for Side-by-Side Racing

The International Auto Federation (FIA) has created a new category that allows side-by-sides to compete in off-road events under FIA rules.

Side-by-sides can now race under the T1-2 Light Weight Buggy category, which was specially made for side-by-sides like the Polaris Ranger RZR, Yamaha Rhino, Arctic Cat Prowler, Kawasaki Teryx, and Can-Am Commander.

This new category gives drivers the chance to outfit their stock machines with additional safety equipment and other materials to compete in FIA sanctioned events.

Those curious can check out the new Light Weight Buggy T1-2 category rules online at www.FIA.com or directly by clicking here.
