: GXSR750 Sammi-
rocky mnt. crawler 02-16-2010, 09:11 AM Any video of the show that the red and white GSXR sammi put on at backdoor? That was some of the most entertaining shit I've seen in a long time. Crowd rolled him back over twice before giving up. Hope someone got some footage.
Appntr 02-16-2010, 09:26 AM JT drives like that whether its the Sammi or his cab truck.
Here are a few pics, the pics suck but it is what it is.

mw87toy 02-16-2010, 05:10 PM JT beets on that thing like that about every weekend. Then he daily drives it during the week. says it gets about 30 mpg.

gmcxt 02-16-2010, 07:41 PM I love the other vids of this thing on youtube. Someones gotta have a Hammers clip somewhere...
durnzuki 02-17-2010, 04:10 AM It's one hell of a vehicle. We competed against him last season, needless to say we lost.

BIGWOODY 02-17-2010, 08:23 AM 10k will buy it....Hell, he had such a good time out there he stayed another few days and rode around with some locals he met, he still isn't back to NC.
JThomas 02-17-2010, 08:53 AM I met some cool people that had a house at Salton lake near Glamis and saw more of the west coast. I must have put 300 more high speed miles on the sami. I'm looking for a winter job there now. The west coast hospitality was impressive.
That Sami is bad ass!!!
I take it I got you the right starter?:D
JThomas 02-17-2010, 09:59 AM That Sami is bad ass!!!
I take it I got you the right starter?:D
Yes thanks. I take it you got short 30.00$
russellmn 02-17-2010, 10:13 AM Would love to know how you hooked that up to what appears to be the Sami trans/t-case... are you running the GSXR trans as well??? How is it holding up???
cj5 buggy 02-17-2010, 10:33 AM lol...we were in the tent working on the buggy Wednesday night when we heard that sammy take off....We all looked at each other and said, JT is here!!
we were thier talking to some folks on the lake bed and they started asking about it. We said the same thing JT is here and he'll put on a show for sure.
PyroZuki 02-17-2010, 10:35 AM That would be saweet to see how you hooked that all up! I heard you leave camp a few times, but never did get to see you rail the rocks! I have Sami that I would love to put a gixxer motor in!!!:smokin:
russellmn 02-17-2010, 11:10 AM I'm thinking more along the lines of a stupid light buggy. :D I know the R1 engine weighs about 130 pounds, would expect the gixxer to be about the same.
mw87toy 02-21-2010, 10:32 AM Nobody has any video?
blacksheep10 02-21-2010, 01:45 PM I guess all the pics were deleted

dmsFab 02-25-2010, 10:22 AM Damn it, I was hoping there was a build thread somewhere for this.....or atleast one with pics. This thing is damn ass! I loved hearing this thing come screaming around the rocks.........at 4 miles per hour:D
I am seriously thinking of building a super light-weight rig just like this with the GSXR 750 motor I have laying around too!
JThomas, do you have any pics of the motor mount/trans"adapter"? I looked it over pretty good at the Master's pit while I was bullshitting with you but didnt take 1 picture of it! That is a very cool ride you have there.
i finally got to go for a rise in it on at the hammers (funny, cause we live 3 hrs apart:shaking:) Its crazy fun!
I havn't laughed that much in a LONG time!
DRTRAYDEUCE 02-26-2010, 05:06 AM I seen him launch that stock black sammi up some huge hills out out gulches , I offered a friend of mine 100 bucks to ride up a hill with him on a bet and he turned me down! Most definitely a show to be seen!

norzuki 03-19-2010, 08:37 PM when he was at the 4x4Cross up at Uwharrie mountains ( I think it was last year)
when he hit the rocks for the comp......... everyone knew it. Screamin Eagle W.O.T. and it echoed in the valley too.
Love that rig !!

madmonk 03-21-2010, 08:54 AM He placed 2nd at the ECORS race yesterday at DPG , fun to watch and that thing sounds badass wound up.
kponjpin 03-25-2010, 07:26 PM He placed 2nd at the ECORS race yesterday at DPG , fun to watch and that thing sounds badass wound up.
The sammy has about 20 foward gears and 10 in reverse..lol
It sounds like he's going a buck twenty, and you can still read the letters on the tires. We've been calling it the E-ticket ride around here. It's a fun ride indeed.
By the way, Madmonk, thanks for all the help during the ECORS race!
