Did anyone else have a cracked windshield in Rick Redline's Funco, in the latest sand addiction mag?
I was looking in all the other pictures, it was okay, but on the first page of the article it looked cracked?
Anyone have the details?

I noticed that as well, and I also was wondering what tires and wheels he is running as they look taller.

Ding ding ding. I believe it's in the article, that was almost two issues ago but the shot on the cover is one of the shots just before it went over.

i asked rick redline awhile ago about the article and his windshield and he told me that he wasn't driving the car it was Chad Geaorfe and he accidentally put it on it's side. im not sure who Chad Geaorfe is, but he did it.

Chad was driving the car and he is Grant George's son. He was going 5 MPH when he put it on its side. No other damage, only the windshield caracked.

Was that in the last issue?
Didn't see Ricks car in the Aug issue, maybe I missed it.
There was a nice article abouts Pat, Dune Flyers House on wheels, in the aug issue,
And a very nice piece on some little 3 wheeler event

Gone-ZO is use to driving Rhino's...
Let's see if her can post something on how it occured. It wasn't a roll over it was just put on its side. Only damage was windshield and a whip. Windshield is coming off this year, gonna go with helmets.
