SO YOU WANT TO GO RACING? | PART 13 | ECU & CLUTCH TUNING | CHUPACABRA OFFROAD

July 30, 2021

0 comments

This RZR was running as good as it ever ran until it wasn’t. Unfortunately, we are going to have to go with a new motor and start over. There is no finger-pointing guys, in all honesty, many things have happened to cause this. And I think this is pretty uncommon in RZR motors, lots of racers run 2500-3500 race miles in them no problem.

SO YOU WANT TO GO RACING PART 12 | INCREASING RACE SPEED WITH ADAM CASTANEDA

A good way to figure out how to go faster is to reach out to other racers, learn, watch, and ride along. As we’ve been making improvements to the race car, we can push harder, and once we figure out tuning and clutching, we will be at a whole new level of speed. The shock tuning has given us a ton of confidence! We met up at Geiser Loop to see how it felt, in a spot we know well.

BRINGING THE KIDS | HELMETS & BOOSTER SEATS I USE FOR 2-4 YEAR OLDS

There isn’t much better than you kids getting old enough to start going offroading. As a parent you want them to be as comfortable and safe as possible. There’s a lot to think about with helmets, as 2-4 year olds do not have a lot of neck strength. Coupled with rough terrain, they are going to get bounced around.

For day 3, we loaded up and headed to Sand Hollow. Most of the group hadn’t been to this area, which was fun to show them more sand, more rocks, more trails, a few whoops, and really making this a great Southern Utah trip. We covered so much, and there’s still so much more to go back and see.

IS THIS THE NEW RZR & X3 KILLER? SPEED UTV BREAKDOWN (PART 1)

Am I getting starry-eyed with this new Southwest whoop eater? It doesn’t make sense, just 3 months ago, I made a video saying that Speed wouldn’t be able to produce this SxS in 2020, and at the Sand Show, I thought people were crazy for putting down deposits on this new car.

Perfect dunes and perfect weather sum up this past weekend in Glamis. As most of you duners know, each trip is different for different reasons, the group you are with, the rides you go on, the carnage, the weather, but I will remember this weekend for being the best conditions I’ve witnessed in quite a while.

Every once in a while you take a different route that leads to some serious fun. Luckily we have friends that are VERY experienced duners, and they always put together flowy, fun rides. This one paralleled the highway, and we rode from Vendor’s Row, to Osborne Lookout, and eventually Gecko Rd.

Pretty crazy that there were two fires this Presidents’ Day weekend at Glamis. Luckily we were out riding when they both happened.

RIDING NEAR GLAMIS | HOLTVILLE TO DUNER’S DINER | CHUPACABRA OFFROAD

Yes, Glamis is awesome, but did you know that right behind Gecko Rd, there’s some really fun trails and washes? The group at Coyne Powersports led us on a fun 65 mile loop ride from Holtville to Duner’s Diner, and back. When we first arrived, it looked pretty flat and kind of boring, but it was one of the most fun places I’ve ridden in a while.
