azflyinscooter Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I have tried to reach Josey at Sick Sand Travel for several weeks now. His Shop number has been disconnected I did get a hold of him on his cell. I tried to order a new rear sprocket but needed to call him back. He has'nt returned my phone calls or answered his cell since then. Does anyone know what is going on over there? Thanks, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azflyinscooter Posted January 12, 2007 Author Share Posted January 12, 2007 I wish he would just tell me that. I cant get a sprocket thru Sprocket Specialist. It is special for SST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunefreak Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Chris, after I got off the phone with you I talked with Craig (wingnut). He said he'll try and stop by the shop today after work and see what's up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barefoot bob Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 sometimes (most ) times if your closing down it hurts and its embarrising and you dont wanna talk to no one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duner23 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I was there at the shop on Thursday January 11th and saw my car 95% completed. They are doing some restructuring through the company. They are still very much in business. Try calling the main number 433-7425 and asking for Brian. He will help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That number comes up disconnected or no longer in service. The only number I have is Josey's Cell. But He won't call me back or answer my calls.

But He won't call me back or answer my calls. I just called the number and got a answering machine that says their company. Maybe something is wrong with your phone? If you want you can e-mail me with your name and number and what part you need and I will talk to Josey or whoever the new boss is around there and get the ball rolling. I assume they are closed today, so I will be dropping in there tomorrow. Pistone2@cox.net Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 ^^ Same here. The main number worked for me too and I got the answering machine. Chris, are you sure you are dialing the right area code? 702-433-7425. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daknuckler Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 The # pete posted is the office # if no one answers leave a message and they will call you back. I dont know the whole story but my buddy bought the company from josey. I know they are still building and are also working on some other projects IE: different power plants and bigger cars. just preliminary though. I called my buddy he said they will call back, or you can stop buy as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duner23 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Chris, What pressure are you running your tires at? Josey told me to run the back at 10PSI, but the tire says 35 max PSI. Thanks Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azflyinscooter Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 I have been playing with tire pressure the last few times out. I started with 6psi when I bought the car. At 6 the car is stuck when you gas it it goes straight. I now run 13psi because I drive a little more agreesive and like to slide thru the turns. With higher pressure it is easier to break the rear loose. When my girlfriend drives I air done for her she doent like it sliding. Just play with the air and you'll find the pressure you like. Post some pics of your front end (spindle and arms) You have the new ones and I would like to see what they look like. What springs did you get on the front and rear. You'll have a blast just stay safe it don't take much to make a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rick 35psi, are u sure thats not the max bead setting pressure. 6 to 8 sounds more accurate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azflyinscooter Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 35psi, are u sure thats not the max bead setting pressure. 6 to 8 sounds more accurate That is the max bead seating pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I run about 8-10 psi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duner23 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 8 -10 sounds about right. What about the front? I went with the King shocks. I'll put some pictures up in the next week or so. I also put a intercom system in with a I-pod adapter. IT rocks! I will be at Dumont, Feb 1-5th. Maybe I will see you out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunefreak Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 As for the fronts- I think I run about the same pressure as the rears or maybe a lil bit more. hmm I'd have to check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duner23 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 My front tires seem kind of high. They are showing around 30PSI, should I lower it since the max bead pressure is 35. THANKS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
