I dont mind all the pics I love dune buggys! I almost got plowed by one riding up in shamokin pa, they use to travel in packs it was pretty badass, I'd put a 385 stroker in one now that would be a fun buggy :D

Well you all can lookin some of them pictures and see how many buggys ride with us. We have the room to ride them were we live. BUT some of its hard to ride were they rut it out so bad. Now the biggest place for dunebuggys around were i live is in livingston ky. its called cromer ridge. There is were the biggest hills ive ever seen is at. they travel in BIG packs. I'm talking sumtimes 50 buggys in a group lol. Well ill try to get some more pics later on today of some more of the buggys we had.

killen them all

i have been looking at dune buggys for about a yeat but they are all in bad shape so idk i think a 2 seater with a porsche 911 turbo motor would be cool

last year in my senior year at high school in my shop and welding class we were always messin with VW motors for buggies and stuff. We worked on like 3 different buggies and beefed up frames they are pretty fun!!

I have rode in a few Sand rails and all I can say is ...WHAT A RUSH!!! :blah: the last one I rode in was a 60,000 Rail with a Corvette motor in it :cool: I cant believe how plush the suspention is, when you land a jump, you feel like your floating on a cloud... If I ever had the money and lived closer to the dunes I would HAVE to have one!:macho

Sand is a BLAST!
