I have! 3 trips now in the car! Having been in a good handful of cars of the same era, I can comfortably say that I understand why so many people have a great love for the early Alumicrafts. For a 4 seat, single shock sandcar, this car absolutely gets down! It is a blast to drive and definitely...

Ive been waiting for someone to bring up Podium because I love there work but everytime i see their new car, I cant help but see an Alumicraft.... in almost every way... but i dont know enough about them yet. Thats great info to start with and makes sense.

All bearings are getting replaced, new axles are on order, B pillar added and the prep continues. My buddy at Sandburg Speedshop is saving my butt on going through this car. This usually takes me a few weeks to go through a car when I get it and he’s knocking it out in what’s been a week. Might...

Any info on these bearings? I would like to replace them and not finding anything on them yet

I know someone in here knows this car. The guy that I got it from mentioned he bought it off someone from this site around 2013-2014 ish. Stock 2.0 subi on about 8# and a built 091. He has a wrap over the paint and says its white panels with blue flames. Will confirm soon enough. The chassis is...

Car is acquired, a little elbow grease and the testing/learning will begin

Love the tail end of this. Great tin work, that is eye candy.

Absolutely. I very much agree with this point! I have outrun LS Sand cars and canams in a short travel Mazzone only because I knew what its strong points were and capitalized on them every chance I could. That run still gets brought up every time that group wants to do a night run. Suspension...

All great info. Thank You for the insights. I have been in Fast Kennys car and it handles great, but being passenger only gets you so much info and direct feedback. I am looking at a early Cooley car at the moment and Alumicraft has been on my list of cars to try on for size for a while now. Im...

I know Alumicraft is synonymous with desert racing and there’s a lot of history there. Interested in the Sand Dune side of the Alumicraft story. What’s the history, the different models, certain chassis that stand out and out perform? I know the Funco cars really took shape in their 3rd...

Most the "duners" that are here in utah are all in Northern utah - North Ogden down to Sandy area. Tons of others sprinkled further south. I live in North Ogden myself and your in good company. Send me a dm and Ill keep you informed on the next dune trips here locally. Little Sahara is very...

Excited to see that thing back in the light! I remember you talking about plans for that car, I cant even remember what they were it was so long ago and I didnt know much then. That would be a wild ride for sure. I know "no lift shift" has been hot topic this past year. Justin at SCU was...

Great feedback. The music vs Raw sound is always a good debate. Ill focus on more walk arounds and info on the cars as well @Rockwood Ill get a walk around of the LT Mazzone this season. Thats a great car, still one of the best cars Ive driven.. I just wish it wasnt so fragile. That car begs...

I am putting more effort into my YouTube channel this year and am curious what to focus on. For the past few years its just been a place to house my dune runs, but over time its evolving into a channel to highlight Different Sandcars. I plan on doing more Sandcar Showcase videos like the...

Great work! Love to see it. Huge fan of these cars, and came really close to buying one last summer. I love how small lightweight they are for a 4 seat chassis. Cool to see the mods coming along, and done well. Keep up the great work!
