National Staff Greg G. Posted April 16, 2006 National Staff Share Posted April 16, 2006 Hi, I'm looking into finding the cheapest ways for our Time Trial and PT drivers to get to Mid-Ohio from the West Coast. I think that if there are two (or three) car open trailers that are available (for cheap rental, or exchange for new tires and spares, etc) from some of our racecar drivers/owners on the West Coast that are not going to make the trek, this may be our best plan. We do have a bunch of diesel tow vehicles that can do the job. Please e-mail me if you think you may be able to help us out.

National Staff Greg G. Posted June 4, 2006 Author National Staff Share Posted June 4, 2006 Come on guys, aren't there any open two-car trailers out there that won't be in use that week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn M. Posted June 4, 2006 Members Share Posted June 4, 2006 In addition, I can temporatily trade my single car trailer for the time of the event if this helps the cause. Otherwise im towing my car there myself. (Major $$$ at the current gas prices, WOW, dont see it happening.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon2dmaX Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Does it have to be an open trailer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
National Staff Greg G. Posted June 12, 2006 Author National Staff Share Posted June 12, 2006 It would for me, because I have an F250 S.D., so I'm limited to about 11.5K lbs. Also, open trailers would be easier to deal with if there was any problems with it enroute, and less likely to get stolen, and less costly to fix/replace/etc. if there were any "problems".
