This should be some rig. I just took a peek at Racingjunk to see what a basic toter home sells for used that is several years old I am guessing you could have bought two more R8's and then some. I look forward to the pictures

Charley is still in the "easy monetary" stage... and I can get a 3/1 ARM with no money down... and borrow 110% so I can fuel it for the first 4 months.


There's no bubble in the toter home biz yet.

Just for Charley I'm having "Girard" awnings on all sides of the trailer and the toter -- figure about 8 football fields of shade... in a checkered pattern of course!

Actually = I lied = I can only get solid color awnings... so sorry Charley -- No checkered flag awning for ya!

Think with the PPG Barcelona Blue -- like the '32 Ford I posted -- I'll do an off white or tan color...

Consider tan, it will age gracefully and still reflect heat.

Maybe a checkered chair to make Charlie feel extra special.

That big lummox has his own chair he brings to the track.... He even let me sit in it once.

Greg,

These cooling, senior friendly awnings you're adding will wisely attract pro-touring type shuffle-boarders.

They'll be a calming effect on this hobby, which seems to need their age marked/sun spotted yet steady hands right now.

Steal it, find the right fabric and take it to the upholstery shop!!!!

That's exactly the chair I thought of.

Okay -- I finalized the plans for "da rig" so in 18 weeks we should have birth of this whale....


I just have to find some hot rod flames for the front of the tractor that I like... and maybe I'll do them and maybe not. Have to see it done graphically FIRST... I must be from Missouri.


If I'm lucky I might have it in time for the Buttonwillow track day in September.
