This is pretty cool, Yahoo Current "Driver Buzz" did some video segments with host Kinga Philipps on buggies with John from Wizard Fabrications and Ryan from Fab Lab.

That story is from Feb 1999. If you Google that wackos name he hasn't stirred much up lately as far as I can find.

Wow Steve, time for some sand in your toes!

But I agree... way too much PC crap in this country.

Hey Cord, good responses here. I would add that you might try adding temporary weight to the front just to see what happens and if you like it. Maybe start with something that weighs 20-25lbs. and clamp or strap it securely to the front of your rail, then drive it and see what happens. If it helps, ...

Will do. The Riverside open house should be coming up soon as they just moved into a huge 38,000sq.ft. building that is just set up awesome. We'll keep you posted.

Hey all. I'm so busy with work that it's hard to keep up with everything. So it would be great if someone from this board would volunteer to cut and paste ASA news into our ASA forum once in a while.

Thank YOU for the map! The more the merrier! We have ordered a bunch of carne asada, pollo asada as well as burgers and hot dogs for the BBQ. We plan to have a good time, and have some great info available to our guests at the Open House.

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to remind you guys that you are invited to our Open House this Saturday.

And if the ASA would like to set up a info table, please contact me and I will arrange the details!

Happy New Year!

We will be bringing her home this Sunday!

Please email my wife @ QueenGlamis@ cox.net to set up a time.

We may try to go this weekend to get the MH. However, it is looking pretty full at this point.

We plan to go out for Veterans Day, so it will be home after that.

Thanks for the great recap Steve. To finish first, first you have to finish.

That Racer car has twice the horsepower of Jeff Quinn's car, yet they have the same trans. I guess the trans chose the winner. The Racer car broke the ring and pinion. Oops!

Thanks Vince. And congrats to our customer Jeff Quinn for taking the overall win.

Yes Steve, I got a real job, that's why I can't post on the boards all day long like I used to.

No upgrades to my rail, but I just picked up the buggy below for a friend. We're going to help her put an engine in it, strengthen up the frame, and paint it. Should be a fun project.

Safety is a great thing, but we can't always be 100% safe. How many people have an aluminum roof to keep the roll cage from sinking in the sand? I don't, and I have watched a friend roll his rail and the cage sink in the sand. Had it landed on the driver side instead of the passenger side his head m...
