I have a Jeep.
I thought the only area of sand, east of the Mississippi, was in Michigan. Where do you get to use it?

 

I normally run it up in some small private dunes in Erie, PA. I live in pittsburgh so I take it out my brothers property out in the country during winter and put some snow tires on, I also go mudding alot in the spring. I've been thinking about taking it out west near Death Valley if I can get my bike sold.

 

Most of the states west of the Rockies have some dunes open to ORV's. California has 2 areas that I've heard about. One is so hot that they don't run there between May and September.

 

I wouldn't doubt it. I'm from Las Vegas so i'm somewhat familiar with all the dunes and local landscapes around there, my father raced these when I was a kid and I would always ride with him and ****. If I were to go out there I would probably want/need more power for the sand dunes. Just go ***** out and jump hills all day.

 

Sliver Lake State Park, Michigan is the only place in the east where we have dunes that allow ORV.

 

Sand dunes? I would prob rather go up there than the whole way out Cali.

 

Yes I have a Rotary powered beach buggy. Have a look under my profile, and look under show all albums and My Rotabug. Its a 13B sixport engine, 4 wheel disc brakes with 4 pot calipers etc.

Here's their web page.
DNR - Silver Lake State Park Information
I haven't been there in 40 yrs when my father took us in our 4wd truck. But, it's still going strong. The local 4wd club and the Michigan Jeepers have annual meets there.

 

You know the internet rule, pictures are required.

 

I will check it out, thanks for the tip. I was actually thinking at work today about putting a 13B in my buggy this winter...advantages? disadvantages? What trans/driveshaft could you use?
