    1 week till our season kick off at Dumont Dunes :woot: Happy Halloween!

    I got the quads all fixed up and ready to go, just got a couple things left to do on our sandrail.

    My bf and a friend are building a custom SCU sandrail in our garage, was hoping to have it out at the dry lake bed in Boulder City this weekend for a test run, but ran into some problems tonight so we will see...might be able to test it sunday afternoon :cool:.

    I can't see the pic....but yes it will wheelie.

    The frame is a custom build from Sand Cars Unlimited, based on their Big Brother car. It has a Buick Grand National Motor and an Albins transmission, pretty unique set up for a sandrail.
    My bf and his friend, the owner, have put together pretty much the entire rail except building the frame. They finished the wiring this weekend and it's running, but ran into a problem tuning it due to not having a knock modual yet. It's up in the air if it will make it's 1st trip to the dunes this weekend!!

    My bf and I have a Funco sandrail with a 3.5L turbo Honda, Mendeola 2d transmission. We bought it completely built, it's really not fun to build one lol. It's pretty fun to drive and a great rail for the dunes.
    :burnrubber:


    This would be why I don't have time to go to the meets ;).

    its understandable why you can't make it to meets...I would love to build something like this...:thumbsup:

    yeah tuning can be tons of fun...even more fun to learn...but there will always be headaches along the way cause of unforeseen circumstances...I'm sure you guys already found a knock sensor, if not I got a friend who owns a performance shop and can have it to you guys ASAP...pm me if you can't find 1 locally...

    Thanks...
    He has 2 of them coming this morning, were supposed to be here yesterday but UPS misrouted them :rolleyes:....But he borrowed one from a friend last night, which helped cause now they know something else besides the knock sensor is a problem. I think he said the part is discontinued :confused: but that could have been something else...They are having an issue with the MAF sensor now, they are going to try some things with that tonight once they have the knock & a new MAF sensors to try.
    I'm not familiar with how engines work and all, I just listen and try to learn.
    I know they are having some trouble because it has some custom mods done to the motor and it's an 86(?) so much different than technology in motors now. Both of them are GM mechanics and they had some other mechanics who are familiar with the older motors come help out last night, they should be back tonight too. They are also having trouble with a 'translator' which I'm not sure what it does, got too confusing for me lol.

    Isn't looking like it will make it for this weekend, unless it all falls into place lol.
