I keep thinking about the sandy beach at the bullhole. Would be fun to have one with a balistic brushless setup. You could make some nice high speed, wheels up passes. Big ole rooster tails. That's it, I am going to build one.

Nice work. You should build a few of those and sell them since you dont sell your tuber anymore. I know I would buy one so I dont have to finish the one I started.

thanks Leon. good idea.i will start on it now. pm sent.

anyone else?

yeah, no kidding brandon. When i was giving my scaler a shake down at the bullhole i had just as much fun in the sand as i did the rocks. the trail docs do great in the sand by the way! clean out very well compared to the moabs i have always run.

Tony, cant wait to see one run. I remember back when whats his name was building them on the other crawler site. they look like a lot of fun. I've heard of Vdub sand rails doing uwharrie and tellico.
