Bump at 6 months out

whats everyones thoughts on driving a VE-T B13 800+ miles????? sounds kinda risky to me
anybody bringing a trailer by chance???

Go for it. My plan is to find a suitable tow vehicle (crew cab p/u or suv) and trailer my SE-R. Kimme and a friend are driving the NX, and my little brother Brian is driving our P10. I could drive the SE-R if I have to, but it really is a little too stiff for anything over 6 hours. Having a trailer gives a level of safety in case anyone breaks something at the track. We can all still get home, which is important when home is 12+ hours away.

I posted in the middle atlantic section to spur some meeting locations. Will post up as we formalize the route with times.

Hopefully it will be fine. I only have 20 miles on the rebuild so far. Ill have to bring a bunch of spare parts and tools just in case.

Ahh, Joe you are showing your age... "little too stiff"... I thought the same of my B13 when I drove it from NY to SC. My suspension is 350/300lbs. By the 5th hour I was used to it and the rest of the 8 hours of the drive were just fine - especially since going south the roads became progressively smoother.

Yeah, fall of 2009 Kimme and I road tripped my SE-R to Deep HQ in CT. Roads up North are brutal with a track suspension.

If my car is done by then I might trailer it up, I'm close to louisville, Ky.

Trial run leaving GA on Thursday March 17th, actually March 18th at 2 am heading to the Deep meet in CT. Returning Sunday morning early to be back in the ATL by Sunday night (1 am is the target)

Hey Joe, you get my PM?
