Did you work out the issue with the motor, I can recall the specifics at the moment but some guys are sending the motors away to take car of an inturnal issue I forget something about sleeves in the motor or some dame thing.
Anyway sounds like fun.

none of the socal and TX racers are having "routine" motor issues. sure once in a while they blow up, but so do cup cars.

Truck .... Diesel, Trailer..... Enclosed
==> i am too lazy. i need to con someone into towing my car.

More tools
==> no use, i wont know how to use them.

Winch, Generators, A/C, Awning
==> you are confusing your dream with mine. i am low budget.

Chairs for your friends
==> no, i have friends so they can bring me chairs. and dont forget to bring yours too, so i can use it.

BBQ and .. Big Fridge
==> yes, i love the "green egg", but it wont fit inside BSR


Mini Cup car...???? I predict you finish up with a Cup car or RSR, and maybe a Semi and crew to support it.
==> right, as long as you sponsor my effort, that would not be a problem.

Is that the first GGR event? Looking forward to it.

Did you put in a passenger seat? You still owe me a ride!

if you spot any imperfections, you can always put a decal over it!
