That car ran really good at the drags and the hill. I've got about 20 pictures of him wheeling at the drags.
A few more pics:






Trophy Truck jumping the hill behind Olds on Thursday.

Dave's Predator ran well at the drags and at the hill.
He and my buddy, Sand Predator, both had new engines built this summer.
They ran the hill like 6 times Friday night.
Both cars are quick.

sweet pics, what kinda camera do you use? Also, does sand get on it? How do you clean it, cause Im thinking of taking mine out. Thanks for your tips

I'm using a Canon 20D with the cheap 70 to 300mm zoom lens. I don't change the lens when I'm out in the desert or you get alot of dust on the sensor. Each trip I use canned air to blow out everything but the sensor (use a rocket blower for that) and clean up the lens. The lens works alright when there is enough light, but once it gets dusty and the sun starts to set the pictures aren't as clear.

Ripster, did you ever run against the SandLimo car?

I ran who ever would line up, by the end of friday night no one wanted to play any more, so I am gonna detune the car so it will only have 550 hp and be more sportsman like!

Detune.....you liar!!!!

What does it have now? six-fity...

I heard that a red amp was more than hangin with you and your the one that didn't want to play
I wasn't there so this is just hearsay from someones fourth cousins brothers uncle

Yea, Me too.

Hey Ripster, I saw you going down the drags on Friday or Saturday, i dont remember which day, but you were haulin, nobody could touch you! You put on a nice show...

I thought with a color change you guys wouldn't no it was me,dammit 650hp all the way!

Go Big , give me another 700 ponies and I will run you all day long, I will never line up with you ever, you have some serious hp, you came by me like I was standin still, and I will never forget that--someday , thanks for the lesson.

are we in the tpw lounge, don't you have to have a car to be able to talk smack !

Wasn't trying to teach a lesson, just having fun. Its all good.

Go Big, you are right it's all aboat the fun, next time maybe just use half of the throttle,like 3 car lengths, not half a mile! your car is bada$$, I would like to hook-up a ride in that monster, just to experience that adreneline rush.


Lincster-I got a call from a bro in Phoenix who was telling me Dave was bitchen out the motor builder,and wants more hp so he doesn't get spanked again ! motor guy said no prob just give me more $$. Dave, I just detuned the car so you can win, I have never seen someone so but hurt in my life. But just to be fair I talked to Katech and adding a 300 shot is no prob !!!

I talked to my buddy that said he was spanking everyone at I-8 hill in his little VW car. said "totally obnoxious" was pissed... anyone see him? looks like a normal ole beam VW without a turbo..

Sorry my bad Well my Jeep ................................................................................
.............................................. O hell I got nothing.
What was I thinking

Ripster your car looked good at the hill sat! Do you ever stop for a break?????? I need a ride next time sucker

As soon as I stopped the next crowd rushed me for rides, I should start chargin $, But I get a kick out of people screamin like little girls and hypervenalatin, < thats mispelled. good clean fun, sometimes I tend to get carried away.anytime you see me, stope and i'll give ya a run. besides you didnt show up at the drags at 11 sat ? nobody did

I saw him, in my rear view mirror,----------------------------------------------------------------------------- no I didnt see him

Whenever your done tickling the Drags let me know when you want to line up. And have your A$$ handed to you with all the trimmings....If you need a couple of car lengths that's cool too.

You can go for a ride any time. Just grab me.

I wouldnt discount Dave yet, as soon as he can figure out how to keep it on the ground you will have your hands full. He's not running 100% yet. He's still trying to get used to the new power.

J/K by way........

Actually Dave was withen a cars length, and your right I believe he is losing due to the fact he can't keep it on the ground and the thought of going thru the gears while standing it up actually scares him ! his car weighs around 2200lb, and mine is at 3500lb he should be able to pull me every run, And now I will never give him the oppertunity again this season, heck I dont need to, I already beat him 3 times isnt that enough punishment.

I was there at 11 sharp in the howling wind lol. No one showed so i went to the hill! We will have to get that done next big weekend!

Awesome pics!

OK. Why don't we just flop out our dicks and see who has the biggest one. I know I can't win that one but it would make more sense. If you are going to talk s*** at least get your stories straight. None of this bulls*** is true about Dave wanting more hp. There is plenty of hp in that motor but he needs to figure out how to get it to the ground. He didn't even spray the second stage of nitrous yet (good for another 100 hp). Dave probably has about $20K into his motor and I would guess you have at least $30K. You can buy alot of hp for an additional $10K. Give Dave a few more trips to work out the bugs in his new motor and you will be going back to your engine builder for more hp. Lets all get along and have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!

stock ls-7 with a cam 14 g, Sand Predator,I have nothing against Dave,period. Like I said before once he learns to keep the front end down he'll be blowin right by me. I learned along time ago that I would never be the fastest, or have the baddest car, but if I can go out to the dunes just for 1 weekend and actually be able to run and have fun,thats all that matters, and I'm sorry if you are taken this the wrong way, and your right I shouldnt quote someones brother of a cousins brother, best friend of a another friends hearsay and bs. I thought we all were friends and did get along.

were you on arizona time a california, I was there at 11 sharp california time and not one person in site and thats when we went to the hill.

cal time oh well maybe next time
