    Clutches! Weddle Vs KEP

    I ended up going back to a Kennedy clutch. Stage 3 I believe and it has been great. No noticeable difference from the weddle clutch and 1/2 the price.

    PCI Trax Vs Elite

    Has anyone experienced both? and is the TRAX significantly better? if I am reading it correctly, to get the full benefit of the TRAX system you need to run new cables and new headsets as well? currently have a standard intercom w/ the old school racer X mini amp tied into it... and I upgraded...

    33 vs 35 spline axles

    For new build definitely go 35 spline up front. Just make sure to carry a spare CV and maybe 1 axle as they are harder to find when you’re in a pinch for time. Hopefully you’ll never need the spares but nice to have.

    33 vs 35 spline axles

    are you currently having axle or CV issues w/ the 33 splines? 35 is supposed to be stronger... had a friend that was going through CV's w/ 33 splines, he has swapped to 35 spline and so far so good after about 1 season.

    Sand Car Prices - New and Refresh

    I sort of agree when the dunes are beat to crap... This last weekend the conditions were nice and I fell back in love with my car. Still an LS powered car in the 50K range in decent conditions is a lot more fun than buzzing around in a SxS IMO

    Sand Car Prices - New and Refresh

    Extreme seems to be doing this the best. Inflation is a mofo... 125K is the new 75K. Still can't beat a buggy in the sand. SxS are cool for their versatility, but if you're doing sand only... a 50K used LS1 buggy is gonna outperform the SxS

    CBR or Ron Davis Radiators

    CBR... but not sure if their customer service has improved? Heard they were taking longer than expected few years back and they were hard to get a hold of. I put a new CBR radiator in my car in 2020, and no complaints.

    So who are the builders of Sandcars now?

    do they actually build their own cars, or just prep and service other cars? I do see a lot of alumicrafts on their IG page.
