That's what it take to keep up with you Steve.

Before last week, I would have thought you were nuts Charlie. But that race in Texas will humble even the most loyal fans.

This is a dual axle trailer with somewhat stiffer suspension than the single axle. Being too heavy is not a concern, although, it kills the gas mileage.

Wing spar with the ASW wings on either side will aid in the fuel mileage

Len -- looking FANTASTIC!

Clearly a lot of thought and sweat going into this thing. I think we should all kick-in and supply the official kegerator!

Thanks Steve. I'm trying to take all of this years experiences into account when setting this up.
I know I need a generator, I plan to get the little honda that I see a many events. Possibly a little fridge, micro and coffee pot. After Cumberland, coffee is something to worry about.
