Please all sxs owners and users, this is getting worse. And there's not a lot of people who remember 20ish or so years ago there was no state land that you could ride anything over 50 inche wide single track!!! We only had about 1600 miles of those trails. You could not even ride your dirt bike down the side of the road 3/4 of a mile to get to a legal trails.. they impound machines back then left and right and that's in northern Michigan Houghton lake.. so we really need to get involved with letting people know how many trails go across private property and you don't even know it!! These people can only take so much, respect goes a goes way!! Even on the two tracks. When some of these guys get to a 4 way stop, and they decide it's a great place to do donuts!! W.T.F,, that makes know sense what so ever. That just showing everyone that works with the government who all so ride, the people that do the road grading and up keep.. there's no respect for the road or land.We forget in the late 70's early 80's it was like it is now. By the 90's it was over!!!! You couldn't ride a dirt bike on the side of the road or any state land,,, other than a few other state lands like silver lake you could ride. There was 1500ish miles of 50 inch trails only in lower and the up.. that's the way it was for orv's it sucked, I got in a lot of trouble over those laws when I was a kid. Because I went from being able to ride anywhere to know where basically for me.. ,,, I'M ONLY TRYING TO WARN EVERYONE, BEFORE THEY DO IT AGAIN,, DONT LET THIS HISTORY REPEAT IT'S SELF... And this gentleman should only be respected.. and maybe an agreement can be made?.. just something I see coming after seeing videos like this....

Many people romanticize the idea of homesteading in a cabin in the woods with no neighbors: living on your own piece of property that has a creek flowing acr...

I know I'm slippen bad with this page. So here's a photo drop of a few things that have and are going on around the shop's..
We are going to start to do some videos on this page soon, just little things we do day to day ,and how busy we stay year round.. and with my son BOBBY now the new owner and operator of Hard core performance in Houghton lake Michigan.. I'm sure the online pages are going to just keep growing!!! Bobby has been working on everything we do at the shop since he could walk.. his play ground was the back salvage yard!!! No swing set's, just boats, snowmobiles, atv's and some old farmall tractors to play on. So this is what he's be doing for the last 30+ years, starting out running around playing as a kid. To running the business to taking over the business and running things, and as always looking for better ways to keep our loyal customers happy... we have so many customers that had delt with my Dad then me and Bobby as well. Over the years dealing with all of us at different times and for awhile all 3 of us working together!!!! That was something that you just never forget!!! So as I have become the new old man around the shop I'll still be there every night for as many years as I can do what I do. I've been working the night shift for the last 6+ years. Coming in around closing time and sometimes learning in the morning just before the day shift comes in... I will continue to do that until I'm done. Witch will more than likely be the last day I walk this planet!!! Hopefully not to soon!!! So anyways keep up with the direction this page goes and let's enjoy the ride together, once again I really would like to let all our great loyal customers and new customers to come on in and check our place out!! A little secret watch for the show room to double in size in the not so distant future!!!.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish my loved ones, friends, loyal customers, and Facebook followers a joyous and peaceful Christmas. As we embark on the new year, I am eager to devote substantial time to dyno testing, striving to achieve optimal performance and a competitive edge, supplemented by comprehensive field testing. Moreover, I am excited to announce that our new dyno configuration will be tailored to meet the needs of circle track race cars and two-wheel drive vehicles. Our state-of-the-art wheel dyno boasts an impressive capacity of 2000 horsepower, providing a valuable resource for those seeking increased power. We anticipate the wheel dyno to be fully operational by late February and the engine dyno to resume functioning by next winter. I wish everyone a joyous and relaxing holiday season. Thank you. Best regards, Bob

A little turbo engine for the red line buggy. It's the same engine all part numbers and casting numbers are the same, just different ecu and a turbo a long with about 130 hp. Should be way better than the 80 something it is now.. going to be a cool project...
