barefoot bob Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 I don't know much about these go carts , So my question is : on a dune ride to the pole , or should i say FAST dune ride to the pole , can these things reasonably keep up chasing the big cars on a dune ride ?

DuNe~Rydher Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 What do you have? Obviously it depends on the driver, in my opinion more than the car. With 200+hp at the wheels likely running E85, and good suspension (aftermarket valving and springs) you can keep up pretty well driving aggressively. A nimble rail with a turning brake will leave you in the dust though. I haven’t driven these newer sxs’s with the fancy live valving and such, they might not need work out of the box.

jalper Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Depends on the keep up, I think they will keep up with most drivers, for me i am abdicated, to going fast 1000HP on a pre-runner with 39'' tires, full sequential, Most Sand cars dont keep up with us, So i you i dont think it is a mater of keeping up, it is who you ride with and how fast you want to go, i have hit 125-MPH in some places, so a lot of cars wont do that and no SXS will.

CaptNkllm Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 He has the rzr Xp4 Turbo.. Talent well he might have lost some due to age 🤪but I think he can still keep up.. Everything will come down to suspension.. Depending how that soaks it up... then HP. I think You might be surprised on how well it does out of the box... No it wont replace the Green Beast but its a start and its for the family.. Fun and good times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barefoot bob Posted March 12, 2022 Author Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) ya i miss the beast, However i don't want a 1 trick pony anymore, want to go and do other stuff as well , I have watched Pete run his car with a busa and stay in the mix like it was no big deal ! back when we were all running big cars, I am hoping for a similar outcome. Then again the Groupe of us that ran back then we left many 1000 hp sand cars 3 dunes back on some of our north pole runs , I get no more drag racing the hill no more 140 mph runs on the back stretch. I am just hoping this thing will stay in the mix . on those wild ass runs to the pole . That was one of my biggest thrills, these little go carts are amazingly capable to an extent , but today ill see how well it will do, I'm headed to Dumont to see what it will do. ill be out there rockin my Del Taco flag in a go cart . See if i have any talent left funny thing i was looking into putting turning breaks on this thing but i guess the way the rear ends are designed they go into lock you can't use them on a sxs < that sux hope your home this weekend dave in case i run out of talent ! love ya brother Edited March 12, 2022 by barefoot bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
