I thought you just have to register it as an ORV.

I know tracks there are only x number of permits, so you have to find a dinosaur track and rebuild it if you are goign to use it, or just buy a nice used one.

As for a buggy, just be carefull, it gets scary out there...been there been stuck plenty of nights out at holey lands even on my big bore bike...

The only thing you may need is a flag to ride at Holeylands. I couldn't find anything in the 08-09 hunting book that says anything about a buggy, so I figure If an ATV or AirBoat needed a flag, a buggy may also. As soon as your buggy hits the levy it will need headlamps, taillamps and brake lights.

I think as long as everything else is there, they may not mess with you about the brake light. My buggy doesn't even have brakes.... or a brake pedal.
