It's nothing to see drag jeeps & rails out there racing on one weekend then see them at the dunes the following weekend. That is my home track & believe it or not, after a long day & night of drinking, I once raced a Honda civic with my Toyota Celica GT down the sand. I won only because he got stuck in a rut somewhere around the 30' mark. The track owner Ernesto Juarez used my buddies diesel Dodge to get him unstuck & yanked the plastic bumper cover off.
I'm slowly accumulating bits & pieces here & there to build a drag jeep of my own. They are so fun.
