That's the most American Volkswagen I've ever seen!
@@1SqueakyWheel Volkswagens are a thing of the past..😂 Pure American power and steel right there 💯
@DougsX5 GOOD ones are a thing of the past for sure.
Tell me why do we need cyber trucks again?
My thoughts exactly 💯
🦾🦾🦾
Wow, ya dont think about things like this to much, great video, allways good to watch yer vids while here in michigan,s frozen wonderland keeps us cooped up a bit.
Glad you enjoyed the video. It's always good to share the dunes, even from afar. Thanks for staying tuned in!
Awesome 🔝🔝🔝🔥🔥🔥
Thanks 🔥
this video is sickkkkkk
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Holy Smokes, Thanks for sharing. Gotta watch our Mirrors on the Rails. Awesome video as always 🤘🏻🙏🏻🫡
😂 "Holy Smokes! Who knew... Appreciate the props and Thanks for watching!
That’s one way out of devils bowl lol
Maybe even the best way...lol
Saxon!🤘Great video btw and great times, we were out there too for NYE '25
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video. Couldn't think of a better song to represent our sport! Sounds like you had an awesome time at Glamis for NYE '25 too! 💯
I remember back in '80,went out ti visit my grandad in Salton Sea, CA. He had 2 rails and 2 VW baja,s I wasnt quite old enough to drive on the roads but out in the desert was a different story. He taught me how to drive a stick shift and do some pretty cool things with all 4. The rails were the funnest tho. Ill never forget grampa. Wish i could tell u 45 yrs later how much fun i had with you!
That's an amazing story! It sounds like you had some incredible childhood memories with your grandfather at the Salton Sea. Learning to drive a stick shift in those Baja Bugs and riding the rails sounds like an unforgettable experience. It's clear how much those times meant to you. I'm glad my videos brought back those cherished memories. It's important to hold onto those special moments with loved ones. Thank you for sharing your story with us!
@DougsX5 good memories are great! Thank u for making me think of spending time with him. Now I spend as much time with my new grandson and hopefully he'll have great memories of the things I get to do with him
Great video. Enjoyed this, not like the average SxS video uploades. Thru horsepower at the drags.
Appreciate it, it's good to mix things up sometimes!
Great video thanks for the heads up.
Glad you liked it! Stay safe out there!
Sick video boss
Appreciate it!
The ear protection makes no sense
It is very loud in the cars and the hearing protection is actually in-car communications headsets and are hands-free, allowing driver and passengers to talk easily between each other as well as the other cars.
That’s nuts that his car would set itself on fire!🔥 Has to be just the right angle and conditions for it to happen. I was shocked how quickly it began smoking when you removed the covering from the mirror. Reminds me of some poor ants I terrorized when I was a child. Loved the music and the motorcycles and the cool wrecker too. I’ll bet he’s popular when someone breaks down! 😂
I know - Who Would Have Thought! This may be why we don't see ants in the dunes 😆Thanks for the props RANDUNE! That wrecker could be a great business!
good job
@@steve-lp8tl Thanks! Appreciate you taking the time to watch.
Is he running Concave mirrors? Love your videos, keep'em up!
Thanks for watching! I'm not sure as I didn't even think about that and it's hard to tell from the video. I'll have to ask him. Appreciate the observation and the props.
You have to go in circles to get out 😂😂😂 Nope 😎💯👍
@@madtod9975 😂
use to go to pismo and saw amazing things like this even seen a few people who tried showing off but did not stay alive on way to hospital
Sandrails are powerful machines that can be dangerous if not handled correctly. It's important to remember that safety is always the top priority, even when enjoying the thrill of a wheelie.
Good control
“oh shit” “OHHH SHITT!” Only one word was spoken the entire video🤣🤣
Knows his car
Is that Jessica and Danny's?
@@Kjaa03 Yes it is.
So cool.. love it
Agreed! It's amazing to see all the different styles of performance machines in the dunes.
Miss you guys can't wait to get back.
Oops!! Houston we have a problem 😂
@@805paulwatson All a head emergency STOP!
Just read the other comments.. Jesus answered your wind prayers.. but he sent it to LA instead..
Na them weights are fake....no I'm playin mad respect....
Damn my heart dropped !!!!
More like operator failure. Either your straps weren’t correct for the force being applied or they were damaged.
@@Anthony-610 Would agree the strap was damaged in some way. That Dyno will never be used again.
@ that’s unfortunate. Hopefully the rig was unharmed in the making of this video.
🔥🔥
Look at that hottie! 🔥💯
🔥🫡
Awesome Doug 🫡
Is that the same trick racing products buggy I’ve seen in your other videos or do you have 2 of that brand of car you run with?
I have been running with that Trick car since 2006 - It was originally the green adrenaline shot and has since undergone modifications and is now white. The only one currently in the group.
Awesome! I’ve got a 2007 trick that I absolutely love. I think I commented a while back when I saw this one in your video. Not everyone knows those cars but they work really well. Wish there were more of them out there. Keep up the great videos!
@@HoodWeldingandFabrication The trick orange money car ran with our group for 4 or 5 years back in I think '06 to 2010 or 11 and I'm currently helping a gentleman in Phoenix with his Trick racing car. I rate them as one of the top handling cars out in the dunes.
For me more hp with a bigger cam in the 5.7 LS1 meant I would need bigger injectors and a better clutch. Fortunately I didn't have to haul it all the way to Glamis to figure that out. I found out on the Dyno.
@@dennisholle1005 The HP/TQ addiction is a costly one that's for sure. Glad you found it on the dyno and didn't waste a trip to the dunes.
how did you get it on the dolly?
@@alvincruz3930 Jack it up and lower it down on the dolly.
RIDES LIKE A CADILLAC
Go Mator...😅
Now that you mentioned it 😂
the x3 works much better for this. also angle the camera so that it is not in direct line of fire
@@thundrchckn Thanks for the comment. On other rides I did angle the camera and put it on the rear roof bar at 45 degrees with the same results. I'm going to run without our lens protectors and see if the lens glass itself holds up with the camera angle as you suggested 👍
@@DougsX5 i havent had any issues with my lenses so far but only time will tell. good luck.
Thanks for the recap. Great editing.
Thanks for the information!
is this whole process the same for the front of the car as well? i assume so but figured id ask
@@mitchellsulak2774Great question - Yes it is.
Man I’m surprised you don’t have a million comments saying thanks because this video is by far the best and very informative about suspension on the tube! Thanks sooo much bro 😎 your the man 🤘🏼
@@robertthomas3862 Comments like yours makes it all worth it - Thank you!
@ I know you’re probably busy but when you get a couple spare moments I’d love to pick your brain man! I really wanna build a rail, but I don’t really know where to start. First off I guess I’d like to do an LS, what kind of trans would you recommend for that?
@@robertthomas3862 It would be cheaper to buy a used one then build. I wouldn't get anything less than a Mendeola/Weddle S4S as far as transaxle goes.
@@DougsX5 sweet man thanks 🙏🏼 also what about suspension, do you have the best? What do you call that whole set up?
@@robertthomas3862 I have great suspension, however far from the best. The whole set up is called a Long Travel Sand Rail. There are many manufactures and you can invest as much as $400,000.00 for the best. Mine is a Buckshot-X5...Check out this website for more info - www.buckshotracing.com/
Is this only on big weekends or all season?
That big of crowds on Holliday weekends, however the vendors are open all season.
I love to watch the jeep guys in G-town
They are cool to watch!
Awesome HP!! I love it!! Now, if we can get him to do that in every area in Glamis that is “Razor Rippled” to death, we can make it a nice place to ride again. Hopefully we get some hard local winds, or as we call it a “hard reset”, because Glamis needs it bad. We’ve had no winds for at least three months. God bless Jesus saves✝️🙏🏻
@@leegray6165 Agreed, definitely 🙏 for wind.
Starting tomorrow for 3 days of good winds finally!!
Damn 😮
