i dunno guys the more i see the more i dont trust half of the buggies being biult out there.We al know you play with turbos and blowers your playing with high heat and an early demise of your motor. pound 4 pound the ls1s northstars and sb chevys are the best bang for buck stock .in my opinion id be more worried about the biulding of the frames dam that yellow car that wasnt right 4 rolls and its destroyd !! that thing is scrap. ive seen pics of funcos broke in half on the dune buggy . com sight. i would be more worried about a decent chassi then the motor . by the time you turbo charge a subaru to make its power that a stock ls1 makes and still wont make the tourqe. and its more suseptable to breakage than the stock one but rk i would say get a decent frame lightweight small motor isnt what its cracked up to be strong frame heavier car and use tourqe from a v8 jusy my 2 cents as a L.T. owner ex turbo owner and a blower owner at present.

What is the overall Performance opinions of KTM's?
barefoot bob replied to Ross and Alice's topic in ATV / Motorcycle Talk
in the two wheeler world there 2 strokes are some of the fastest awsom bikes hard to get parts some people would argue the point but there 4 strokes are luke warm at best now they might have improved the 525 but that 525sx 2 wheeler gets stomped by the crf450 2 wheeler i watched an xr600 take one apart on china wall then the crf took both of them apart. both the 525 and the 450 were in our camp dunno the owner of the 600r.as far as the quads go ive heard the i.r.s. isnt corner friendly has anyone else seen or rode them ?? i have a 90cc predator for mt daughter and i was getting promos that they were merging with ktm. -

along with this is a couple of other things when they test for the magazines they tweak the hp up so high the car wont run very long get the big number then back it down. they do it for the magazines. westech in miraloma cal. is about the best ive seen they give you dynojet and corrected mine for example is 583 hp to the rear wheels on dynojet but on factory rating i run 548 rwhp mines turned down to these numbers. it is ridiculous and im backing mine off. after i race a ken bell blown 427 ls1. that eyeball just biult then im going down into 480s for rwhp

barefoot bob replied to Richard Cheese's topic in Toyhauler/ RV Talk
i have a box trailer with a motor home. i showed you the pics. anywase, i had a 70 gal fuel cell biult under the boxtrailer no problem .if theres room they can do it .just be mindfull of the weight. gas ways approx 8lbs to the gallon. you dont want to much tail weight = fishtailing .to much front weight = broken hitch .do the math try to make the trailer axels do the work with emphises on a lil tounge weight . mine waas set with all tounge weight but mine is a box trailer so i dont have all those living goodies in it gl -

long travel rail crash on open trailer story.
barefoot bob replied to 1320's topic in Dumont Happenings
actually a 2lb helmet killed a dune rider in big bowl about 4 years ago he landed his jump but the whip lash snapped his neck. he jumped into big bowl. I m not saying anything pro or con just kind of wierd incident. im glad the guy is ok it could happen to anyone . there was a guy named chilidog man he lives in orange county. they were loading up to go home he was pulling his rail around to load it in the trailer. no seatbelt did hotrodding or whatever and was killed . Wife kids succesfull bussiness gone........... every ride should be treated the same safley as possible. and lastly you cannot get 70 mph out of 2nd gear in a sand car, but im sure whatever speed it was. was to fast. thats why nascar introduced the neck piece they wear now my son uses somthing very similar when he rides his dirt bike it ties to his chest protector jusy my 2 cents reflecting i guess............. -
