    It's Saturday Feb 15th 2025..What is everyone doing this weekend?

    A little late to the game, but these are always fun. Started the day with a quick photo shoot of the Sand flea Mazzone. Then Comp cut all four tires for a Yamaha YXZ. Then got creative for the Haul home to Transport, some machines.

    Dune Videos

    Thank you for sharing this. a couple years ago I was searching all over for this video and couldnt find it. there is a guy up here local to Utah that owns one. I spent a weekend with him out at little sahara, really nice guy. Most the people around had no idea what car it was or had never heard...

    .

    Im with you on this. Im still no where close to finishing my car. and ill just say that to the point that im at right now in costs, I could have(maybe should have) bought a Gen 4 Funco with an S4 and matching power........ Which is eating me alive at the moment. and whats mind boggling is that...

    Dune Videos

    Just picked up another Mazzone. This one is as clean as they come. This one was lengthened to 113" Wheelbase for the taller drivers. Im 5'9" and I fit with plenty of head room as opposed to my recent Mazzones Ive owned. This dune run is mainly 4th gear low RPM. This was the first dune run with...

    Driving tips- ls1/s4

    For most of these motors, 4k rpm is where its making good power. 3k-5k is where the power is made on most V8s, kind of like a power band on a 2-stroke. you want to stay in the powerband, for multiple reasons. the biggest is you need the power to be there when you need it most. As my Dad taught...

    Driving tips- ls1/s4

    Will you be out for presidents day weekend? I am happy to go out with you and give some pointers. I have helped many people improve their duning and take it to the next level, as well as have driven a huge selection of sandcars. no more than 20-30 minutes and you shouldnt have an issue anymore...

    Gen 4 Update

    I will add to that of having Karl do your shocks. @Grease Monkey - great call out. you have the looks, now let Karl update the ride. Sean brown is another guy you can ask for on opinion. He had his Gen 4 and Gen 6, both cars improved in dune speed drastically. Ive spent some time with Karl and...

    Paddle Tire Choice - Stock Honda 3.5 - Small 2 Seat - 2D

    you actually have some great options. The 32 Leed Screw up front would be an awesome tire, and better then you would imagine if you go mid engine.... I drove a Colorado Sandcar 2 seater (rear engine) and a Long travel Mazzone 2 seater that had the 32 leed screw and it worked way better then...

    Help needed evaluating sand rail

    This really is some of the best advice so far. Not only will you cast a wide net on that page but there is some great knowledge on that page as well and its not uncommon for someone to chime in on it that knows more about that car personally. Also, being an N/A LS motor with what assumptions...

    Dune Videos

    Johns a great time to be around and a blast to drive with. Excited to get another car that can keep up at that level of driving again. Currently have a Mid Travel Mazzone thats made for a great "filler" car. Its one I dont plan on selling but I definitely cant stomach putting it through that...

    Dune Videos

    On board a 2010 Tatum Sand Demon with a 2.5 Subaru on 15# of boost. Leaving olds I was already pretty low on fuel so we cruised back pretty easy. Started getting some fuel slosh towards the end of the run, but nothing to bad. The Tatum Sand Demon is a super well built car that handles the...

    Pro R paddle choices

    12" on the rear and 8" on the front is preferred. Those wheel widths have been a little hard to come by from the sounds of it. as long as your within the 10-12" range and the 6-8" the characteristics of the tire shouldn't change.

    Pro R paddle choices

    The best Set up that we have found for the Pro R has been the 33 Sand Blaster #1 paddle. This has been a super predictable tire and is very consistent through the dunes. Its tall and is true to size so it gives you the comfort most are looking for through the bumps, tons of forward hook, and you...

    King Sand Cars

    Im always excited when I hear about people shopping for streetbike cars. Ive owned my fair share of them and always have some saved in my favorites. I will always choose one over a SxS. Even with NA motors, the power to weight usually puts these about even with a 200 hp Canam. If they are...

    Sandrail at Sand Hollow?

    I have gone a few times with a sand car. its not bad as long as your paying attention. the trail from the beach to the dunes is pretty long, and some spots super fun, but everytime I got back to camp I would use more fuel then expected. Your extremely limited to where you can go with paddles, I...

    Turbo R paddle options

    Sand Tires Unlimited arent just for turned up machines, they are excellent on stock SxS and have the best set up. For the Turbo R, the Black Bird 31 #2 paddle is excellent and pairs perfect with the 31 Tribute (one of the best front tires ever made). If your wanting more height, then the Black...
