n/a engine in dune buggy

This would be absolutly rediculous, imagin the power to weight ratio. let's say you had some port work done to the engine and it was pushing close to...200 HP (n/a)

match that to a dune bug chassis, and you've got a blast of a car to drive. would prolly spank alot of cars on the road.. lol

i am just saying this because i have an extra motor laying in my garage... and i'm bored.

Been done..... If you would just come out and hang with us FAFracing guys you would have a chance to see your dreams come true.

A guy in our club has one stock ported on a dune buggy chassis that weighs a total of 1100 lbs. Let's just say that his stock dune buggy can tear up z06 vette's like they are standing still.

Come out to the car show on Friday and hang out with us. Come out to Gandy on Saturday night @ 10:00 and hang with us. It is an enlightening experience.
