Found your channel last night and binge watched till 530 in the morning 🤣🤣 Grew up in LA till i was 10, then dad's job transferred him out to Baker, CA. He worked for Cal-Trans. But we used to ditch school and haul ass out to Dumont on our quads. Thanks for the memories 😂😂
Hahaha well welcome and thanks for watching! That's awesome. I couldn't imagine living that close to Dumont. And I thought we were spoiled being only 2 hrs away.
@LiveLikePete Hell yeah, no prob!!! Man I miss those days!! Now days its hard to do anything with this stupid lung disease I have. Would love to get on a 2 stroke and blast around the dunes again 🤣🤣🤣
Dude that Anthony's trip was fire. I was checking every day for videos. As long as you're having fun it will never be work.. keep rippin
Thanks!
When I heard you were selling the old buggy I was scared you were gonna get a SXS . . . Then I would no longer wanna live like Pete 😂
🤣 that would never happen
Glad to see you posting again! Great video and nice rail, looks like it handles awesome!
Thanks man!
Glad to see you back and congrats on the new car! I enjoyed the walk around, but especially the duning footage as the storm rolled in. 😎
I appreciate that. Yeah it was crazy cloudy and stormy that weekend. Not great for showing the new car so much 😄 but great for running the dunes and reading the terrain.
Dope ride! Congrats
Thanks!
Always love to see a car make a slow transformation into something better after switching owners! What you do to a car definitely makes it yours. Unrelated, yesterday I was just wondering why you hadn't posted in so long, glad to see the update.
Thanks. Yeah I guess it was a bit overdue. I just haven't had the time and motivation to create any new content lately. I'm slowly starting to feel it again though. 👍
Really nice car, always liked the shorter long travel cars. I still have an early 80's mid engine Fibetech that has not been out in at least 15 years, only fun when the sand is smooth...lol. Great video!
Thanks! Most of these cars are at least that old. They're dinosaurs but still dune better than a sxs, IMO. 🤟
Thanks for the update! The new rail is Sickkkk 🤘🏼
Thank you! I'm loving it.
Congrats buddy. Car looks sick! Good to see a vid from you. I’m one to talk though… 😂 gotta get a ride in man
Thanks bud! Yeah, you're slacking too. 😂 You need to come link up with us at Dumont. We're having an end of season Buggy Roundup Easter weekend. You in?
Would love to but doesn’t look like we can. We’ve got a big trip out of the country mid April. If it looks doable I’ll hit you up.
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel ok sounds good. We're also probably going the first weekend in March. Will know in a few weeks for sure. Welcome to join us that weekend as well. 👍
Glad to see you posting again! Ive always wanted a channel that does dunning like this glad i found yours. Congrats on the new car excited to see what adventures it goes on!
Thank you. I appreciate the feedback. It's motivation to keep posting new content. 🤟
@@LiveLikePete hell yeah i found ur channel a few months ago as soon as the St anthony dune life ended lol, but i binged watched ton of ur old videos, me and my dad used to go duning in our san rail but sadly we had to move and sold it, so its nostalgia watching these vids
Great video as usual..glad your posting again
Thank you Jim. I'll try to keep it going! 👊
Nice car and nice driving. I like your lines.....
Much appreciated!
Strap the a arms together and pull the front up to make the front narrower when you put it in the trailer.
I already do that. It's still way too wide.
Love the new sand rail. Good to see new video too !
Thank you Vic. 👊
New car is stunning! I've got a Tech 3 myself and was a fan of your old car too. I'm running a 2.3 Ford turbo which gets us around fine but of course more ponies and less weight (that Ford is all iron) would be nice. Anyway love the red! Great to see you back at the RUclipss! I really appreciate the coverage you produced on that Idaho trip. I was sharing those videos to our Oregon sand group as they came out. Look forward to the content in '24 with the red beast!
Really appreciate that! I will try to take less of a break next time. 😄 I'm loving the new car and plan to make some more videos.
Love when we get what we worked for have fun.
Thank you!
Glad your back! Congrats on the new car!
Thanks! I'm pretty stoked about it.
After finding your channel , i keep my eyes peeled for tech 3. Now i get to add a desert dynamics to the list. Dont want a full size. Love these mid size.
They're both full size cars. 😄 Or do you mean 2 seaters? But both 2 seat DD & well set up Tech 3s are pretty rare to find these days. They go quick too when they go up for sale.
I knew they were normal size on the width but figured they were alot less in length. basically no LS v8 and 4 seats would seem to be alot shorter. They are very rare , last tech 3 i found for sale was in 2020 i believe. 1/2 our group has both sxs and sand car. The SCU honda powered is only one that never breaks , even the brand new tatum w/ 1400 hp destroyed his tranny in nov.
Thanks Pete, heading out in the AM.
Nice! Have a great trip. 🤟
👍👍👍👍
Great video! Just subbed !
Thanks!
This is a nice video thanks you for
Thanks. Check out some other ones on my channel. I just threw this one together pretty quickly.
nice! wade will want to see this. he knew dave well, spent lots of time there.
Hey Randy! I always loved Wade's DD car. How's he doing? I haven't seen him at Dumont in a while...or you for that matter!
he got old in the last year. he just visited me in kingman 2 days ago. he hasn't been to dumont in 3 years. we did go to st anthony a year n a half ago. i will see if i can get him to go soon.
when i moved it took all i had to git out of calipornia. i had no time or money. i got my 4000 sq ft shop built, and have recovered since. you'll see me there soon, i hope.
@@randywellman6784 it would be great to see you guys. Come out Easter weekend for our next buggy roundup. We're all getting old. 😄 Gotta make the most out of our time. 👍
@@randywellman6784 good to hear you gut out. I couldn't imagine living in CA! 😂
Certified ripper!
💯 Thanks buddy
An AEM CD5 or 7 would be pretty sick !!!
For sure! I'd love to update it with a full dash along with something like that and get rid of the whole console.
What a buy! Dibs if you sell ever consider selling?
I really doubt it but thanks!!
awsome Pete !!
When you coming back out to join us??
I'm hoping to be in the market soon for a sand car. Doing some research I came across your tech 3 video and I followed the rabbit hole to this car it looks amazing! are there any other brands you can recommend? My future car will live at Glamis hoping to ditch the SXS soon looking for a duner car that can eat up the whoops too. I could careless for the drag racing I do love jumping but nothing crazy. I was looking at a 2 seat funco gen4 they seem awesome do you have any experience with them?
@@RobLos81 Funcos are great cars. Extreme, SCU, Desert Dynamics, Suspensions Unlimited, Tech 3...
Was this car at the dyno shop in santee a couple months ago?
No
Turbo Honda what? 3.0 3.2 or 3.5 specs?
J35 (3.5L)
@@LiveLikePete thanks
This one have a stand alone ECU? I don’t think your tech 3 did
Not sure I know what you mean by stand alone ECU. The fuel enrichment on my Tech 3 was a little different setup with a separate module and additional injectors. This car was set up by Karl at VTech with an FMU.
@@LiveLikePete Sounds like both cars are a modified stock ECU. A Stand alone ECU is aftermarket ECU that can run any engine like a link, AEM stinger ect. With a stand alone ECU it manages the fuel and timing (no FMU) and can be dyno tuned. The FMU setup works but its not the best and generally makes the timing pretty advanced, however racegas protects the engine and Stand alone you can probably run alittle less octane. I say if it ain't broke don't fix it. Pour some race gas in the tank and dune!!
@@Thriver106 ahh gotcha. Yeah, I don't mess with any of that. This car and my old Tech 3 are simple, old-school setups that have been run like that since the 2000's. They make 400+ HP and always run on race gas. They are dependable, great running machines. Thanks for the clarification. So many different terms are always being thrown around. I never know what people are referring to. lol
No drone shots of the new ride. You were spoiling me before.
No not yet. I actually tried but totally messed up and had it on photo mode instead of video. So it didn't even record anything. 🤦♂️🤣 It requires a lot of time, effort and patience which I have had zero of lately. 😄 I do want to see it for myself so I'll try to get some next trip out.
What's the cooling system setup?
Cooling system? Aluminum radiator with two fans. No intercooler if that's what you mean. I plan to probably add one eventually though. Cheap, and easy horsepower.
@LiveLikePete Is the radiator is directly behind the seat under that panel?
@@thebinderbuilder yes, both the radiator and gas tank are under there.
Ahhh don't remove stickers 😢 they ad HP 😂
Nah, not those. They were robbing HP. 😂
‘Merica. Heck yeah.🤙
