Well, my buddies with sport quads invited me to the sand dunes with them. So we went to Little Sahara in Waynoka, OK. They kind of laughed when I pulled up in my beast. Their quads were a new Yamaha raptor 700 something with trick dual exhaust and Elka's. A new KTM 525 mx quad with factory Ohlins. And tricked 450R Yamaha. Fortuneately these guys are heavier and older than me. I pushed them through the trails and kept up in the open sand. They kept asking if I was in 4wd etc, lol. They commented on the howl of the trans as I ran along. I tuned the Elkas for the sand as best I could. I had a little butt kicking in the whoop t doo sections I couldn't tune out. She sucked fuel but never left me stuck on a long climb or wanting for power as I chased them around.. I was very happy with the Brute's dune performance. I even grabbed more air than any of them.

Cool TX.... yeah...I love it..when the crotch rocket riders are left with their Jaws wide open..

Nice! Sounds like fun.

You go TX, Let'em know you can ride with the best of em on a heavy quad. HAHAHA!!

MORE AIR THEN THE SPORTS? They must be old and heavy.... (like me) or You're crazy! Sounds like a good time!

Theres dunes down there, as far as I know just sand hills. Heavy UTE's really have a heck of a time in the dunes up here.

A pic from the trip. She looks out of place but runs up front..

neat pic!!

I went to those dunes years ago when I felt the need for speed and it was a blast. As much as I like trail riding there is nothing like haging it out on the sand dunes. It is alot softer also when you get kicked off the quad.
