Adam, I'll keep you posted or keep me posted when you register for NJMP. It will be so much fun. See if Ken can come out with his new toy..

 

^^^ NJMP eats up front left tires...beware. have an extra FL corner wheel and tire ready to go!

 

Definitely. We should all try to stay in pit suites and get a garage. Sunir, you should come and instruct again. Hit up Trackdaze, they always need instructors.

 

^^^ If it's in Sept I could do that potentially...adam could you help tow out my race car? I'd like to have it there, Henry and I were talking about a passengers racing shell and harness so I can take you guys out on track with the race car and cumminicator... lets pull together and make this happen. If we're all on board I'll contact trackdaze and instruct you guys at the event.

 

I am down, just so you all know that trackdaze hold their events during the week days, I think the one I am looking at is Sept 20 and 21st which is Thur and Friday.

 

I can possibly tow the race car. The guys trailer I used for VIR moved to Texas for a couple months and ended up taking a couple of his cars on it. Not sure when he is going to be back yet so I cant make any promises.

 

^^^ Sounds good...we can only try our best and hope things work out Woukd be great to have the race car there it's nice for student ride alongs and would help you guys learn better as well.

 

Ok - last time offering so my feelings don't get hurt...

HAVE TRAILER WILL LEND FREE TO SUPPORT TRACK JUNKIES!!

Open trailer, dual axel, super heavy duty, all aluminum bed and pretty light w/ dove tail and hydraulic tilt bed, new 7k lb elec. winch. One car but big enuff for couple sets wheels, box crates etc. All tagged up, all lights work, new proper trailer tires, hudraulic brakes, freshly serviced wheel bearings etc..... fully legit. Have tons of tie down gear too. Anything being pulled is self-insured and if you mess anything up on it fix it or pay me to fix it.... and it has some miles on it so "mess anything up" isn't like stratches LOL. If you don't have tow vehicle could rent one from most rental co.s

 

That's crazy generous. Any idea how much it would weight?

 

^^^

I'm going to guess its about 1.2-1.4k lb. The weight on the build plate isn't legibile. I keep meaning to take it to place like landfill or scrapyard to weigh it.

It is a commercial grade type of trailer, not one of those rickety super lightweight deals that one guy could pick up and push around. But you can pick up tongue with a little grunt, maybe move it a little if flat and smooth. The frame/tongue are pretty big square-stock steel and axels steel but everything else is about 3/16" plate aluminum. It lives in Columbia, MD close to I95 & MD32.

My current race-car project is uhhh errr not so current = as in way far away from being even remotely half-done so I don't use trailer much, little bit for my business, pulling personal cars around etc. maybe 3-4 days a month.

 

Awesome, I only ask the weight because my V8 jeep is only rated to pull around 7k lbs. So keeping that at like <5k would be nice.

Well, heading down to VIR would definitely be worth the trip to Columbia. Sunir and I will have to plan some stuff out!

Again -- very generous offer, Will.

Henry

 

Or by "will weight" do you mean load capacity? I've had some pretty heavy stuff on there, big pick-ups, SRT8 Jeep w/ extra engine, some heavy *** old muscle cars. Winch pulls that stuff up without any struggle and trailer sat fine. Ramp is a full-width hinged fold down type of deal and it isn't going to break either.

 

Sunir knows where my shop is. That is where it lives. It doesn't take much to pull 7-8k lb.s if not going to crazy mountains or something. Any V8 truck/suv type truck should do no problem. I've pulled it loaded before with 100k+ mi. V8 Land Rover and thats no super stud vehicle.

 

^^ very very nice gesture, if I don't end up getting one myself I might just have to take you up on the offer as well!

 

^^^

Knock yourself out. Any 6speeder is a friend of mine.... I know where you live LOL

It is a sound & winched lightweight hauler and will accomodate as low as low gets.

I am going to be using it for few days to go to Myrtle Bch to pick up a car sometime in next couple wk.s but it will be weekdays and just run down and back.
