and i bet it weighs only about 1500lbs to include the driver...its nothing but a cage and a motor.

edit
i just saw on somewhere on the internet with a 13b turbocharged rotary engine on it...dam, i wish i could find it!

the power is great but i see those things going down the street and they look dorky as hell. just my personal taste. if i had 25k i'd buy a rsx type s and boost it and type r conversion. that's stil a realy sweet motor though.

that rotary one was posted here on hmt last night, check this page and the next page, you'll find it.

it would be easy to do a rhd conversion on that buggy, you just have to move the steering wheel and the rod that goes to the steering ----.

i posted it...the rotary buggy, but i cant find it. and most people dont spend 25K on theres. I have seen plenty of buggies built very nicely for a decent cost. turbo vw motors, sand rails running 11sec in the sand "sand drags" for under $3,000.

you can buy a used buggy for anywhere between $600-$1000 then put $2,000 into one ------ screamin motor...you have a bad *** toy. ive seen them with anything from harly motors, to hybussa motors, to ones like above. most people settle for just a vw motor though.


in michigan, silver lake to be exact -around the dunes, sand rails are a huge craze. and they should be, your right next to the ------ dunes.
