It's been a great cars for the last few seasons. I can tell you good and bad stories about all of the builders...

    Love these threads. Especially when someone will badmouth a particular builder based on a 'buddies' experience.

    Fuel Transfer Tank For the Dunes

    I'm in the same situation. I've always had a transfer or auxiliary tank for diesel in my truck bed. My new truck has a folding bed cover and I like it. My buddy had a bulk refueling business (where Balin works now) and he said he can get me a tank that will fit under the be cover. It needs...

    Proper Seat and Harness Selection

    Fine line between safety and comfort. Helmets are a good idea in all sand cars and SxS's, same with a fire suppression system. But to each their own. And to add fire to my post I do not think helmets should be mandatory for SxS's and definitely not for street bikes. But I also think...

    Proper Seat and Harness Selection

    This topic used to come up on RDC a lot. I raced Class 1 for 10 years with suspension seats. Fortunately I was never in a bad wreck, other then being rear ended by a car we were towing to bump start. The teams owner did roll the car bad and walked away. After I stopped racing the team...

    Racer Front Engine Sand Car - Why?

    Back on topic. I saw one of these Racer's in Glamis for the Tatum/Racer regatta a few weeks ago. I didn't get a chance to see who the owner was or talk to him, but later found out it is a client from many years ago, Sean Moore, who as owned several Racer's. He was leading a separate dune...

    Shocks... Cerakote Vs. Powdercoat

    I don't have any recent pictures but the threaded bodies look fine. I did like 6 coats knowing I'd need to thread the shocks back together and didn't see and Steel It get messed up. Edit to add- The pic showing the threaded body with Steel It missing- I screwed them together and saw that, then...

    Auto insurance

    I have Farmers for my trucks and kids cars. Tried to separate my 22 yr old son so he could get his own policy and Farmers said if he lives with me he HAS to be on my policy. He's $1800/yr for a 2008 Jeep Cherokee, but he pays me for it. I have a Progressive policy for my RV and kids...

    Shocks... Cerakote Vs. Powdercoat

    Most powder coated shocks on cars I prep leak. The baking process warps the bodies and they leak soon after a fresh rebuild. I used Steel-It on my shocks and several clients cars. Cleaned them with mineral spirits and did several coats. 4 seasons and they need to be redone. I didn't put the...
