Very nice. Thanks for info. Given the front engine, what’s behind those panels in the rear? I’m surprised the azz end still looks fat 😀😀

What this does for you that a simple AirTag does not? I'm also looking at options for tracking certain toys.

Did not know this. My new car will have a Switch Pro. Sounds similar to our wakeboard boat which has the same type of code capability.

When is the last time you replaced the fuel filter?

I'm curious what folks do, if anything, about securing your sand cars at the dunes? I'm not necessarily talking about at camp but when you go to the Beach Store or Vendor's Row, Duner's Diner, etc. I was watching a YouTube Vid this morning of a guy videoing nice cars parked in front of the...

and what size is that wire you're vice gripping in? Looks like maybe #10? Which is only good for 30 amp max. Might as well violate every code and exceed all limits while you're at it ;):)

Russ sold BFD to one of the guys that worked there about 5 years ago I think. He tried to make a go of it and looked to be doing OK for a few years. Latest I've heard from people that tried to do business there in the last year or so was the guy pretty much went MIA. I sold a BFD to a guy last...

Brian was the lead Fab at Alumicraft for a long time. He opened Podium after AC changed hands. I vetted him for a new car. He has a nice design but hadn't built one yet when I talked to him in February. Super nice guy and his work looks great. I really wanted to build with him but couldn't get...

Easy but dangerous as F--K! What happens if one of those vice grips comes off and now you have a live cable floating around in there. Not to mention you have to leave the box open. If you're gonna do that at least throw a spare breaker on the bus and hook your bare wires to that and backfeed...

Yep, I get it. If you like the portable, I would do one of the big Predator Inverter gens from HF like others have suggested.

Can't speak to Cali permit issues but these type of gens don't have to be super expensive if you shop around. I have an off-grid second house. I found an industrial rated Generac 15kw LPG/NG gen on Ebay. A contractor that did work for a clean room aquired it in a relocation. It only had 105 hrs...

I hope this gen works out for you. Sadly, B&S, like many other names known for quality, just aren't what they used to be. B&S was bought in 2020 by a PE firm and this usually does not mean good things for the consumer.

Where are you located? How much do you want for it?

My new trailer has dual 40 gal tanks that are selectable. I don't plan to use multiple fuels but nice to have the options if I ever to decide to re-tune to 110 race gas or similar. I would be able to still carry typical 92 for the other toys.

Did you ever find the fuel tanks and system you were looking for? If not, here's a place you can buy everything you need. The Toy Hauler tab and Specialty Tank tab on this site have everything listed there: https://vectorperformance.com/

I'm putting one of these Acumen units in my new sand car. Not using the Switch Pro part , just the monitor. This allows me to omit the Garmin unit since I was only really using that for the monitor for back up camera.

Just saw a pretty new one listed for sale a week or so ago for $325k. Doesn’t appear that saving a few bucks on a transaxle is the motive on these cars. Has to be another reason to do front engine I would think.

I’ve seen a few of the new Racer front engine sand cars now. I’m curious what the benefit of the front engine is? Is the car better balanced or something? Seems like the weight up front would be much harder on the front suspension? And from photos engine maintenance and repair looks like it...

That looks killer! Only problem now is your wife is never allowed to talk to my wife. :):)

I bought new HJC helmets for me and the wife from PCI at the SSSS. Pumper with speakers and mics wired and all ready to go. They even shipped them to me for free
