Still Any Buggy's Race

As they careen around the last turn at break neck speeds of up to 23 MPH, it's still up for grabs.

Who will win the coveted Dune Buggy Derby Crown?

Well, it's not much more than a craft store novelty hat... but it is really nice cardboard.

Round the Bend at the Buggy Derby

There are no internationally ranked cyclists on this circuit anymore, but what better way to take advantage of this track than strap the kids into a dune buggy and take 'em up to 23 MPH through the twists and turns?

Last Lap Cliffhanger

Looks like that outside lane gamble paid off after all, and now they're neck and neck approaching the last push to the finish.

I wouldn't be surprised if one of those buggies gets it up to 22 MPH in the mad dash.

Back Pedaling on S. Ocean

Now that the Criterium races have concluded, the Buggy Derby is underway, and the special event parking on Coral Drive is still packed.

With all the traffic, and incessant cowbells, I'm sure there are a few people down there that wish they had stayed home today.

With the exception of little Billy, who is perfectly content to just play with his Tonka truck.
