Drag racing in the sand?
Here is P.O.R.N.s truck in the dunes (blue one)

The name of the game is wheelspeed in the mud I have only had my bronco off in the sand once down at a beach near where I live maybe with the tires that I had or something or the vehicle it just didnt like alot of tire spin. I was referring to wheelspeed in the mud in the mud the faster you can get your tires spinniing to clean the lugs the better so you get more bite in the mud. That looks like alot of fun. Is that on one of the beachs near one of the lakes or is there a sand pit somewhere near ya'll. I wish there was something like that near us. There is a beach about an hour away but nobody goes down there to do that kind of stuff.

It is silverlake sand dunes in michigan. An awsome place to go beat the truck up.

Our first trip this year will be may 26th, more power, more vidios, more fun...

Hell Ben (PORN_1) may even race this year if he not a baby

What a *** no affence to anyone with fast trucks but remember what the option you bought you truck with...........oh ya Z71. The last time I checked that ment you got a better suspention for OFF ROAD USE, and SKID PLATES. What are the use of skid plates if you dont use them. Mabe a bunny will run out in front of you truck while running down the track then you will be glad you got them.
LEAVE THE LOWRIDING TO THE 2WD TRUCKS
