Q - Why would I want the Sandbullet Video?

A - Our new action video was professionally produced. It shows the Sandbullet cars in action and in several different terrains. It does a great job in showing the speed and power of these sandrails. You will also get close up views of the car for the do-it-yourselfers. If you are trying to decide between a few of the sandrails on the market, you will want to have the video to be able to compare. The best part is that it is totally risk free. You will receive a full credit of the cost of the video on your first purchase of parts from Sandbullet. Also, If you are not satisfied with the video in anyway, you may return it for a refund of the purchase price.

Note - the video is currently out of stock.

Q - What type of engines go into the Sandbullet?

A - Our Sandbullet Mini Rails are designed to utilize motorcycle engines. We recommend 600cc to 1300cc motors. They also must be 4 cylinder, inline configurations, and chain driven. Motorcycle engines offer many advantages over other types of motors.

1 . Motorcycle engines have tremendous horsepower so there is no need to spend money on building up your motor. You can also keep all of the reliability of a stock motor without scrimping on the power.

2.  Motorcycle engines have the transmission built-in. There is no need for costly race transmissions and the extra weight.

3.  They are inexpensive compared to other types of engines with comparable power. You can pick up used motorcycle motors for between $1,000 and $4,000. (When purchasing a used motor, make sure to get the complete wiring harness from the motorcycle also. You will need many parts from this to build your rail)

You can also purchase the newer 1200cc and 1300cc motors but they will be more expensive. They will also have more power. If you really want the speed, you can build these motors up or add turbo chargers and nitrous to produce a machine that will put the fear in you.

Q - Do you offer turning brakes?

A - The Sandbullet cars handle like a dream with their great suspension. They are small and maneuverable so there is no need to have turning brakes on them.

Q - I have my own engine. Will it fit in the chassis?

A - Yes, most motorcycle engines will fit into our chassis if you will follow the guidelines mentioned above. If you feel comfortable installing your own engine you can save money. If, however, you would like us to do it for you, we will need you to ship your motor to our shop for us to be able to fit it into your car.

Q - I want a specific type of engine. Do you have a variety in stock? Where can I get it?

A - We work with several sources that supply us with engines. We can find just about anything that you would like. Keep in mind that the newer and more powerful motors will cost more. If you prefer to find your own, contact local salvage yards and motorcycle shops and have them help you locate a motor.

Q - Do you have a brochure? 

A - Yes.  Call, email, or write for your free copy.

Q - Can I put my VW engine into your chassis?

Q - Will you sell me a street legal Sandbullet or can I easily make my Sandbullet street legal?
