Mid engine sand car

[@brianraudez1199]

Thank you for the responses. Appreciate it

[@mymini911]

Absolutely

[@mymini911]

Awesome buggy and fast

[@jeffetzel850]

Reason for no front brakes is the weight. Under power you can’t steer effectively. You use turning brakes to turn on a dime. Plus it’s added weight you don’t need. You can easily add front brakes if you drive on the street a lot. This is the ideal set up.

At first i thought this was a model kit untill he touched it

[@mymini911]

Nope it’s the real dad and crazy fast, it’s in Montana now!

[@David-vs4rt]

I know nothing about vw motors but I bought a sandrail and wanted to con art it to a mid engine for better weight distribution. After turning the motor how did you reconnect it? How not go backwards?

[@mymini911]

you just spin the motor 180 degrees, the motor will only spin one direction and the firing order is still the same, nothing changes, just the position of the motor.

Hey, sorry to bug you about these type of questions. I’m actually looking for a buggy that almost exactly fits this description. Is there a certain type that this is called it being mid engine

[@mymini911]

yes it is called a "Mid engine"!sandrail just like you said. If you want to build one you need to make sure it is a mid engine frame as well, as obviously it won't work.

My question is how did you go about getting a tag for it

[@mymini911]

It has a vin and is inspected from police officers at the dmv. They run and check numbers, look at receipts and I pay $25 and off to the races!!!

[@davidlingelbach9887]

@@mymini911 so you're saying and I'll have to check it in my state I live in Georgia that I can take a vin tag off a old VW and apply it to the sand rail

@@davidlingelbach9887 do you have a title for the vin tag?

@@mymini911 I have not started yet to build a sand rail. I just wanted to know when I start.

[@michaelnagy4603]

So you ordered a vin tag then put it underneath where it will het rubbed away 😂

[@mymini911]

it's still there bozo, obviously, you have no clue what you're talking about

[@CJLeTeff]

Why is this still up, surely you’ve sold it?

[@mymini911]

Yep, because its my channel and it was my video tutorial of that buggy

[@CJLeTeff]

Glad you sold it, sorry I didn’t buy it! 😁

[@carlohiomile]

Always wondered why guys dont put horns or front brakes & yes you do need them…

[@mymini911]

No you don’t

[@ota024]

Why no front brakes ?

[@mymini911]

You don’t need them, especially in the sand. Still stops excellent since car is so light, you will just skid.
