Still have my BMX bike from when I was a kid. It's a Haro Back trail X2. Wish I had time to mess with it.

Nice! I had a Haro Mirra 540 back in the day.
That's awesome guys.
I have the Haro Freestyler reissue from 2009, I think it was.

(Looks exactly like this,.....not my actual bike.)

Oh man, I wouldn't mind having the frame you can stand on. People get so impressed when you ride down the street in a Jesus Christ pose and it's one of the easiest things to do. Lol

HA HAAAAA
Yup!

What I really want to find is an '85/'86 CW Freestyler. But, those are out of reach financially anyways. I think like 3k or more for a decent one. I love the look of those bikes.

Got the cranks in the mail today. So new bars, cranks, sprocket, pedals, and seat. All chrome has ben eliminated. I might upgrade the brakes and put on some "gum" colored Vans pattern grips on it next.
*also added the half-link chain.

I will be switching my road bikes over to 54 tooth big rings. They come from the factory with 52 but these are not big enough for the watts I am pushing.

Back in the day when I was retarded strong I had a 56 on the front with a 19/11 on the back LOL.

If you don't mind,........how much is that Ben Calimer Stage 2 transmission going to run you? How long did you wait?

You can PM me if you don't want it out publicly. Thanks man.

Don't get me started man. My little sister is a liberal feminist **** and I had to suffer her green hair and ignorance yesterday. I swear to God I could choke slam her through a concrete floor.

Great thread. I picked up another Sandrail. This one is made by a guy named Mike Mazzone who built these frames down in El Cajon near San Diego for about 25 years. He died in 2016.

Car currently has a turbo'd vw that I plan to sell and either replace it with a larger N/A VW, or go completely wild and install a 500hp turbo k24 Honda.

Im having a trans built right now ($6000 !!! ugh) and hope to have the back half on the ground in the next few weeks.

will look similar to this when done.

Those sand rails look like a wild ride! I saw one a local car show that had an old school 2.3 turbo out of an SVO Mustang. I bet it hauled ass!

They weigh about 900-950 lbs fueled, ready to roll. The power to weight ratio is absurd on these cars.

With only 200whp, they have the same weight per horsepower and feel as fast as a 900whp s550 Mustang.

My end goal on this car is 450-500 whp via the turbo Honda.
