    What do you Drive / Ride?

    The Northstar failed 2 years after I purchased the car from Don...I then had Alumicraft help to get a rear cage added and an LS3 installed. The rear wing was the old radiator - how it was mounted (pic below) ...No more race fuel and it's a lot more fun to drive - more low end and matches my...

    Do You Use GPS/Navigation In a Sandcar?

    It's important for at least one person in the group to know how to use their navigation in the event of an emergency...if you'll never be the guy who needs to have coordinates in an emergency and don't need to rely on it for leading, then it's a waste...or as you said, have a handheld backup for...

    Race Radios - School Me - Music Quality

    Thought I'd post what I ending up going with... Rugged as compared to PCI seemed to make the most effort to focus on music quality - their advertising, YouTube video's, etc...so I went with them. After talking with Rugged I went with their M1 Radio, STX high fidelity intercom, and alpha bass...

    It's Saturday October 19th 2024.. What are you doing this weekend?

    Prep work for sealing my driveway...the edger thing with a wire brush sure made cleaning out the cracks a lot easier....and the V squeegee thing helped too. Nice to have a brother in the business with access to the proper tools. Next weekend we seal it. Figured I'll get a few more years out...

    Happy for the change - no offense of course, but it was kind of annoying.

    Tube bender

    Another vote for JD Sqaure - and if you buy this cheapish hydraulic setup for it - you don't need to mount it to concrete - and have it on a roller stand...I have this setup and like it. https://www.swagoffroad.com/products/swag-formed-tubing-bender-air-hydraulic-ram-mount

    It's Saturday October 5th 2024.. What is everyone doing this weekend?

    Productive day. Finished up the last bit of fine tuning on the QA1 install for my C10 and took a test run up to old Julian highway. Pretty stoked on the difference, but still need to play with the coil over adjustments. Added some rock lights to the buggy so the engine area lights up at night...

    Dune closures

    It would be worthwhile to at least attempt a fight to open a 1/8 mile-wide strip from sand highway to patton - and argue it's a life-safety issue. That would accomplish two things - give people a nice large "circle" to ride in and avoid that long closure strip along the highway, and honestly...

    Camp Lights

    Happy to see I'm not the only one that hates camp lights. Get chit done during the day and go inside your rig at night if you need a light...Camping at night is about campfires and hanging out with friends. If you need a personal light, wear a head light.

    Race Radios - School Me - Music Quality

    I ride with headphones - always...I like music when I'm driving...relaxes me, etc. I also like that it muffles the sound a bit, but not enough that I can't hear the engine. Every year I walk buy the PCI and Rugged booths at the SSSS and think about pulling the trigger - allowing me to have the...
