GerritJ Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Anyone know this car? http://www.dumontduneriders.com/gallery/th...s.php?album=133 Quote
dunefreak Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 DAMN!!! That sucks!!! At first it looked like barefoot bob's, but I don't think it is. That wasn't a Wicked Sand Cars was it? Definitely a reason to have a fire extinguisher in the car. I always carry one. Quote
vegas style Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 strange fire... what caught the front end on fire? electrical or over heated brakes?? that sucks......... Quote
EY3BA11 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 wheres the marshmellows Im kinda hungry now... someone needs to run back to camp and get the hershy's bar's and crackers.. Quote
GerritJ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 I don't know what kinda car it was, but the owner was not around. People kept asking who's it was and he was no where to be found. Me and my brother grabbed our fire extinguishers, but it was way out of control. No idea what burned it the front, was a weird fire, the 20 people shoving sand on it would almost get it out and it would flare up almost bigger then it was. But other then that it was a quiet weekend, only had to pull out 2 people from the sand Quote
dunefreak Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 I hope he had insurance. Sad...very sad to see The owner wasn't around?? Who would leave their nice a$$ LT car unattanded? Was that at comp, Gerrit? Quote
GerritJ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Ok, let me try to tell you where this is, know where you enter comp in between the two big mounds, this was way to the left. Like on the other side of comp. Edited December 4, 2006 by GerritJ Quote
EY3BA11 Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 hot rotors caught the brake fluid on fire which caught the tires on fire which made its way back to the seats blah blah blah? Just speculating maybe? hell if i know im no mechanic but maybe he had a hanging rotor or something and boiled the brake fluid?? a line ruptured and caught something on fire i dunno Quote
dunefreak Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Ok, let me try to tell you where this is, know where you enter comp in between the two big mounds, this was way to the left. Like on the other side of comp. like to the right side of Banshee Hill? like here? (comp is the hill on the bottom left in the pic) Quote
vegas style Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 if the brakes were that hot you would be gagging on the smell and smoke long before it caught on fire like that.... he wasnt around wonder if it was stolen or a insurance thing???....... just guessing out of the blue i dont know anything about it........

kris Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 that sucks.i waas out there yesterday and seen him riding. Quote
GerritJ Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 (edited) Around the area where the red dot is. Kinda confusing when i say on the left, depends on where you look at it i guess heh. Edited December 4, 2006 by GerritJ Quote
Sincity_blondie Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 ok I dont know anything about sand rails, so this is probably a stupid question, but Im goin to ask anyways. Looks like the fire was just to the front of the car, but looks like the entire motor is in the rear??? is it possible the owner could at least salvage the motor? I would assume thats the most expensive part anyways, isnt it? Quote

JoeDuner Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 Yap, you're right, the burned one has inboard rear shocks Quote
