Will some have said I am insane. :nw
-
did you check the dunes for that utv invasion week or any other special event up there before setting those dates?
-
remember we moved the dates a week last year because of the utv invasion!
-
UTV Invasion will be following weekend, Labor Day.
I'll put on calender but have to see how summer is going......
-
It was kinda nice having the place to ourselves :)
-
We will be there.
-
I will be there.
-
i am planning on it at this point. scottsmith you only have 3 posts you need to get that count up ;D you should put some pics of your current project up like you used to on dunebuggy.com before they fell off the face of the earth lol

Made my reservations Idaho Duns RV Park. Aug 20 Aug 29 site #30 same place as last year. The big UTV bash won't happen until after we leave. Some of them mite roll in on the last two days we are there. Last year I pulled Chock Cherry at 62 MPH with bad injectors and Idaho sand in my fuel tank. Going for 70 Or better this year. Who wants a ride> 8)

I wanna Ride! Pleeeeease ;D ;D ;D I want to see what 600+ hp going Choke is like.
And yes, I want of piece of this SA action. I need a fix of ripping the big dunes. 8)
So, are your dates the actual nights that you have reserved? It seems like last year went by way too fast, I like the idea of staying a few more days/nights.

mrs fast not going that your looking for passengers already??? lol ever figure out where the sand came from other than the obvious? or was that a bonus from the previous owner?
-
9 days on the sand huh lol that`s a run!

Mrs Fast will be there for sure. She always gets the first ride so if I break she gets at least one ride. Mrs Fast has my number. I don't think it was from the previous owner I think I must have got a big slug of Idaho sand in the tank at some time or another while I was filling my fuel tank. Now that I have it tuned for the higher altitudes I should have a lot more power then last time. My tuner did not compensate for the altitude and took to much fuel out of the tune. Car is running supper in Glamis this year and I am thinking it will be a killer at LS in the spring.
-
so i take it you don't have an atmospheric pressure sensor? doesn't run closed loop either? i remember you talking about needing a high altitude tune while at st a last time.
-

Correct no atmospheric pressure sensor and no closed loop. So If I think i'm a tad lean this time I'll up my fuel pressure and see if that don't cover the lean spot.
-
Mrs Fast told ya to drive like a little old man, rofl. Guess ya dont listen. ;D ;D
Damn I have to add 4 days to that for drive time. I will just have to see hows its going a little closer
-

How would you be going lean at altitude if not lean at sea level? That is opposite of what should have happened.
-

kind of what i was thinking but wasn't sure if e 85 was slightly diff with an afr of say 10:1 vs say 14:1?? altitude should be going rich or fat but that is what i thought and i don't know for sure.
-
Going up hill goes rich. And runs like poo on little mills with no turbo's lol (less air density/pressure, same fuel being injected if no EGO correction)
Fast what ECU do you run? Could you add baro correction? Works really well for guys that change elevation in a short time like driving mountain passes and such.

Lean or rich, ether way last year at Idaho I had to drive the car like a two stroke. It would not pick up boost with out being in the top of the rpm range. That meant having to shift down to a lower gear to bring it up on boost and I would lose it when I tried to shift back to third. No way the car would boost in third like it always has. You want to remember that I run the bowls and shoot Choke Cherry at Idaho in third and fourth out there and maintain 12 to 15 LB boost doing it. To get that last year I had to run them in second on the rev limiter. The car never acted rich and was getting way to good of gas mileage. It may have been the Idaho sand in the tank and the injectors not performing at 65#s but it was off from what it had been in the past. After I put new injectors in and Chris put fuel back in the low and mid range the car was a completely different animal here at LS and right now at Glamis.
-
I can accept the injectors were clogged and leaning it out.
-
i saw the pile of sand that he got out of them. wow i was surprised there was that much in there.

Here is the ECU that is in the car http://www.driftmotion.com/EMS-6860-Standalone-ECU-p/dm305.htm. Don't know what a baro correction is but I have good EGO correction with the right foot on the skinny pedal.
-

Ya you should have seen the pile that I vacuumed out of the tank when I got it home. It was a good cup full. I found that I was using a 100 micron filter for the pre and aft filters in the system. Not good. I now have a 100 micron pre with a 60 micron just after the pump and a new 40 micron just before the fuel rails.
-
barometric pressure sensor which is for altitude ;) ;D and called an atmospheric sensor on the busa.
http://www.speedwaymotors.com/FST-RPM300-Flo-Max-Fuel-Filter-System-with-1-2-Inch-NPT-Ports,112032.html (http://www.speedwaymotors.com/FST-RPM300-Flo-Max-Fuel-Filter-System-with-1-2-Inch-NPT-Ports,112032.html) this is the filter i use and fst rates it for e85/methanol ad says 4 micron but filter says 10 micron

that is interesting but he doesn't have any prices. i pm'd him so i will see what he says
-
well????
-
hmmmm gd.com doesn't notify on pm's i wonder what i shut off. anyway here was my q and his reply
i know you said in the post not sure on the price but lets say last week of aug from a sun to fri......how much set up at idaho rv ? do you just have the 1 th'er?
6 days & 5 nights $550 set up with a full tank of gas / propane. Yep, only one trailer.

now i believe this is cheaper than the outfit doug used and not sure it would be cheaper hauling up on a flat bed, other than ease of haul. when you consider having a place to sleep in your th'er for the trip up. now sand racer 1 and others already hauling up on a flatbed may benefit from this. that is a good price really imo
-
Check those air cleaner elements gentlemen!! This is what I brought home in mine from last years trip. It got to the point that it fouled all 4 plugs and would not idle. This is only the part that "tapped" out on the garage floor. There was WAY more that washed out in the sink. I know I shoulda checked but.......... So do those outerwear thingies come in a size that will fit over the stock inlets to the Busa air cleaner???

Yes, they come in all sorts of sizes. Call them direct with air cleaner dimensions / needs and they will hook you up. Very helpful the time I called them.
Carry on.

That guys mother or father,maybe both HAVE to be a pig.
I'm seriously beginning to wonder about you yum. I mean,I wander all over the net but somehow I never come across that kind of shit! Is it just luck or the different neighborhoods we troll? ;D rofl
-
Sometimes I get bored.
I type in random shit and let the Google run wild. I know I am on all sorts of watch lists. Mother of Satan / TAPF? Yes, I know how to make it and read the paper on how it works (not a typical explosive.) News story on LBGT? Sure. What the hell. Conspiracy theory? Yerp. Shit you hear advertised on Fox news. Bring it. Oh, and the dark web? Lets just say I know a dude.....
I don't watch TV and even if I do my mind wanders so i look up weird shit all the time.
For this dude I typed in "random weird shit" clicked on images, and poof. My eyes will never recover.
Again, pretty confident I am on a few watch lists from my searches. Well that and naming my home wi fi network "ISIS Payson HQ."
-
5: 5: LMAO LMAO

GOOGLE I'm feeling lucky
I thought I had seen everything on the web, I'm way behind.

We are leaving for Idaho this Thursday morning, of course the fridge died in the M/H. I checked some local RV dealers to see if anyone had one in stock, no and they run 1500 to 2400 $$$. And they have to order it. So I drove to Arkansas yesterday to get a rebuilt cooling unit. It's almost ready to go back in. It not as easy as the videos show it to be. That leaves me all day tomorrow to get ready. I need a vacation 5: rofl
-
Wish we could have made it, just had to throw a beach vacations to the girls. I down for next yr!!
Take pic/videos, I am gettin my sand fix at LS next month.

Only got one ride and second gear went south on my car. Lucky me Dan (sandvw) is staying just up the road with a couple that run a shop in Rexburg. The owner is letting me us his house shop to rebuild it. If any of you have facebook there is a short video.

Rebuild video! Pretty nice shop to do it in!

hurry up!!!!
Only 3 more years.

CARNAGE PICS PLEASE!!??
Anyone?

No way to spend a vacation.
-
We have all done our share of desert fixes. Never a trans though! My worst include an input shaft seal, a clutch, and head gasket. I feel you need to make the most of your trip. You already spent the time and money to get there. I laugh at guys we have camped with that will load their toy on the trailer cause a bad coil or fuel pump or other little stuff.
-
Little stuff gets fixed. Big stuff goes in trailer. Rushed fixes at the track or dunes never really work out well.
-
Weird, will check later this weekend.
Last post to salvage -
DS Race: not true.....remember that time when dunebound blew his motor up and we all pictched together to pull his 3.8 ltre out by hand and put that used one in he found at a local junk yard? oh wait that used one didn't work so that didn't work out......never mind carry on
-
It didn't work out too well this time.
