dunefreak Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Good times! The Show was fun but CROWDED...even more than last year. Other than the over abundancy of: shiney, overpriced Rhinos, ugly DuneBuggy.com hats everywhere, and trendy a$$ flat billers...the show was pretty cool. Another abundancy: big boobs and milfs. :shocked2: Nothin wrong with that though! Here are the pics I took... page one page two page three I thought the show was fun like always, but I noticed alot of repeat cars from last year. There were a few cars that I was really impressed with. This one wasn't practical at all, but I took a liking to this one ... Thanks again for the beer Randog! Workin with the peeps at FoDD and Duners.org on Saturday... duniemonkie and ynot... Thanks again to Vicki (SailAway) and Brian for the good food and good times at the BBQ. It was great hanging out with you guys and gals. Giveaway car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wsky70 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 The show was alot more packed than last year, lots of good eyeball liberty. Good talking to you again Pete, and meeting dunie. Read your post about helping out, should have read it before the show, I coulda hung out longer and had some fun, and helped out wherever was needed. We drove back up that night. Didn't want to hassle with finding a place and making the morning drive. Plus went on a little ride this morning around here, it was a cool morning. Think I may head up for a morning ride this Sat, I'll post it up....Semper Fi, Woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SofaKing Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Didn't think it was as crowded as years b-4. Not as many dumb arse flatbillers this year. But the beer was as cold as previous years so it was all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high octane junkie Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 i liked all the rhino's, knew there was gonna be alot of 'em this year anyway but that was the machine we were mainly shopping for this year. i was upset that alot of the exhibitors weren't selling and products. one company had what we were looking for but couldn't offer us prices and was only displaying their product. we came ready to buy. we ended up not spending as much as we anticipated, but got some good ideas of what we wanna do with the rhino. also found a company to make custom arms for my shee w/ yfz450 spindles. we walked the show twice and didn't see the fodd booth. seen corva and such and i've seen petes photo's but never seen the booth myself. it was busier this year than last, and i'm looking forward to the next ssss.

MCGYVER Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Show was pretty packed fo sho Alot of Sick A$$ sand toys, and a boat load of rhino's all around. Saw a stretch limo/6 seater rhino in one hall, probably does all of 20 miles an hour now with all the extra weight !! ALot of neat inovative idea's and different styles. Not much for sale in the rhino accessories i thought? The UTV/side by side scene sure in on the rise for poor folks like me that can't roll in the 100k plus dollar sick sand toy. It 's all good, as long as i got a gas pedal and a cupholder for my beer, its all good. Ended up staying @ same super 8 as pete, and did see OGP's unit in the lot as well as several other DDR folks. I may have gone to bed before ya'll got back in for the evening?? Had a good time, will return next yr. hopefully. And maybe the traffic on I15 north will actually be moving when we come back !!!!!!! f-in freeway blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SandBox_Kid Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 My brother-in-law picked us up at the ship around 10:30 and asked if I was up to going to the show. HELLO!!! You know it.....so we went through the show pretty quick....just looking for rails. Seen some killer paint schemes. There were quite a few Eddie's paint schemes there also. I saw the FoDD booth, but didn't recognize anyone and really didn't have much time to BS....had to catch my flight. Got lots of free reading material which is always a bonus!

SandBox_Kid Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I only took a few pics myself.....I was more interested in the paint schemes. Don't know why since I wouldn't have one on mine. Too nice to want to ride in the dunes. Click here. It was hard to choose a favorite, but I really liked the paint on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 That was ARC's Booth.. I saw that car as well.. pretty sweet... I really wanted to see their 2 seater though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werd. They're were no smoking deals on the chit I needed. Was more of a fasion show, & who had the most tattoos & attitude at a vendors booth. Did meet some cool vendors though, so it's all good. Did get a pretty good price on an l.e.d. thingy to go on top of the trailer flagpole so my I can find my way home at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I went looking for a deal or 2... whip mounts that retail for 35 were 35 at the show... there wasnt really any Show specials... it was kinda crappy.. needless to say i didnt spend hardly any money on show items..

dunefreak Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 I agree. There didn't seem to be any deals on gear, parts, etc this year. Hell, even the turbo paddle tires for 2 wheelers were 30 bucks. That is an ok price, but I remember last year they were 20 at the same place. Same goes for the gloves I bought. 10 bucks last year....19 bucks this year. Oh well. The only thing I really spent money on this year was a 2" SuperStrapp, a pair of Fox gloves, Dunesafe contribution, buggy raffle, and a few expensive a$$ beers. I usually only go the SSSS every year for a good time. If I see a good deal, I snatch it up. Otherwise, there's always cool stuff to look at every year that I will never be able to afford...so that's always fun. I also like to stop in and say hi to some peeps at the show that I rarely get to see in person too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowdog Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 "Show prices" are complete BS. That is too bad because there would be more buying if prices were more reasonable. Here are all the pictures I took. Still have a bit more organizing to do. :freakin_nuts: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowdog Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I thought that I had pretty much taken pictures from every builder at the show, but I missed a few. Anyone know who built this one? I was thinking Alumi Craft. It is a rear-engine, two seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randog Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Seen some killer paint schemes. There were quite a few Eddie's paint schemes there also. Oh yeah, I saw the Eddie's too. My buddy Bobby ( .Biz ) said I should do an Eddie ( Iron Maiden ) paint job on my car. I've thought about it, and still thinkin'. I hade a great time at the show too. It was cool to meet more DDR peeps and some I've already met. :freakin_nuts: I'm really glad that Pete was able to control his beer consumption on Saturday, so there would be some for us on Sunday. TY :freakin_nuts: :freakin_nuts: I think Biz is going to buy a Tatum 2seat mid eng. I'm stoked. He's cool peeps. R- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EY3BA11 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Crowdog... If memory serves me right its either penhall or potter!!! one of them 2.. I thought at first alumicraft but then looked at the add and i was caught off gaurd by the builder. Seeings i had never seen a 2 seater from them...

Crowdog Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Seemed like the mini-rail sector cooled down a bit from last year. Didn't see anything new with them, and it seemed like there were less builders there. But maybe it was just my imagination. the Sick Sand Travel race car looked pretty cool.
