Nice. :thumbsup: You have dunes in St. Louis?

[PlaidBear]

No, but we have mine tailings at St. Joe State Park which is basically pulverized rock sand from an old lead mine. It's all flat and makes for some good drag racing. For dunes we have to go all the way to Little Sahara in Oklahoma. We try to do that trip at least once a year.

There are a few sand drag strips around here but they all bracket race. I like heads up racing so I take it to the Park.

A majority of the lead was removed from their extraction process and the rest will only give you fish gills and elephantitus of the genitals.

There's an adjustable rear shock that's kind of hidden by the frame right behind the transmission.
