We headed out Tuesday night though Sunday for our traditional Christmas trip. Had to test out the sand paddles on my Ace 570 and really see how it would do in the sand after the break in period and test how well I would be able to keep up on the dune runs. We did some upgrades to the Ace, added the Pro Armor 5 point harness, Tribal Whip lighted flag, Tusk trunk bag from a RZR 800 (fit perfectly), 50 Caliber Bead Lock wheels, 25 in 7 paddle Scat Tracks in the rear and Doonz in the front. We also added 2 inch wheel spacers to widen it to just about 60 inches. She screamed through the sand! I was a bit concerned about how much fun the Ace would be over my Raptor 700. It has just gotten a bit too difficult to ride my Raptor with a knee injury. But the fun factor on the Ace was awesome! I was able keep up through the dunes with the 1K's and not be left behind wondering where everyone went. I even launched it off a transition all four wheels off the ground, landed it and it just kept going. Mike even got a "wee~wheelie" out of it! Before we put the wheel spacers in, it was a pretty rough ride, going over whoops and steep transitions from dune to flat ground, but it was much better after the spacers. Suspension would have to be my only complaint. I put 268 miles on this trip alone and Mike put 300 miles on his 1K! And together he and I went through 55 gallons of fuel!! So it was quite the four days of ride ride ride ride... especially considering the wind blew Weds and Thurs! We did end up finally just saying it and went out in the Ran into another guy with an Ace 320 at the North Pole, that was pretty cool meeting up and seeing another Ace in the dunes! I would have to say this was the best trip of this season! We had great company and campfire talk! And not hurting after rides is pretty awesome! Some of the pics from the weekend...

Looks like we have a winner. We will keep you posted if it does not work out or get some pics up once it is installed

AWESOME weekend! I rolled in Saturday morning, with a transmissionless sandcar and quickly got to work. (Lou B brought it out to Dumont because Krusty rebuilt it). As I got set up to get started working everyone went on a run. By the time they got back I was adding fluid and ready to dune! I can't thank Krusty enough. The install went smooth and his rebuild was awesome. The car ran strong all weekend long and didn't give me one single problem. We got a ton of duning in and the weather was great. Here's a timelapse of my trans install. All done! More to come. I took a bunch of pics as usual.

go big and send the boys home
