Took some beach pics the weekend. The little green bug handled the sand almost as good as the baja.
(Also did a little circle work!)
ENJOY!

The turquoise bug (Old Blue) runs 24psi in the 15" rims. They are Bridgeston Dueler Ht and the white one rums Yokohama Super Diggers and Bridgeston Duelers on the front and they are 8psi in the back and 10psi in the front. Old Blue is usually for the road and the baja is for thye beach and dunes. We recently f***ed the camshaft on the baja and bought another motor for it for $100 and we found out that it's a 1776 with a lightened flywheel and bored out heads! Runs sweet!

To get on the beach we have to take them down a sand dune and the turquoise bug went sweet! The baja just goes anywhere!

The guards im thinking have been made to handle mudflaps but we dont have them as we run no accesories to keep the weight down lol. My bug has a slight hicup in first second and third. Have djusted the carbie and cleaned all the plugs and ponts. Whats the problem? It only gets short runs so we are always cleaning the fouled up plugs. Due to the rego on it we must stick to certain roads and not exceed 10km. it will stay like this untill im 17 when i will Special Intrest Register her! First time shell be registed in 15 years Lol. Look out you japanese shitboxes, this bugs gonna mow you down!🥷
